32.4 Deficencies in the Current Network Dynamics API

There are a number of deficencies in the current API that should be changed in the next iteration:

1. There is no way to specify a cluster of nodes or links that behave in lock-step dynamic synchrony.
2. Node failure should be dealt with as its own mechanism, rather than a second grade citizen of link failure. This shows up in a number of situations, such as:
   1. The method of emulating node failure as the failure of the incident links is broken. Ideally, node failure should cause all agents incident on the node to be reset.
   2. There is no tracing associated with node failure.
3. If two distinct route models are applied to two separate links incident on a common node, and the two links experience a topology change at the same instant, then the node will be notified more than once.
