Certainly I am sympathetic to the idea of a trust flag. This would
initially affect whether locally originated requests are routed to a
node (configurably), but we might use something similar for request
preference. However, it may not be necessary, if we favour nodes which
send few requests... Anyway, backoff is definitely one of the things
which is up for negotiation in our attempts on -devl to redesign the
load balancing system.

Please remember that the signature file (.sig or .asc)
should be the first file given on the command line.
