I think this sort of thing is badly needed, especially for the router/VLAN
scenarios which you envisage.

However, one thing which has always bothered me is the message:
	arp: actual retrieval of routing table

I've seen this when the arp table is in an undefined state, i.e. empty,
it could be more helpfully worded.
