Hi Jon,

As discussed on the call yesterday, I've written up my thoughts on
what a bunch of the address semantics should be.  Turns out I'd
already done some of this at:
    https://pad.passt.top/p/InterfaceMode

I've now updated to cover some more things, and considering the
possibility of multiple guest addresses..  Turns out etherpad doesn't
really do tables, so it's two sections for the two suggested modes,
with matching subheadings.

It's still very much a draft so:
 * It might be unclear - please ask me to clarify anything
 * It will have some mistakes - make your case if you think
   my proposed semantics don't make sense
 * It will be incomplete - feel free to add extra subheadings for
   anything you
