  It's sort of in v3, for the trust router work.  But not in a way that can be sustained moving forward.

  In v4, all of the proxying is being moved to modules.  It means that proxy.conf becomes harder to configure.  BUT things like "proxy to 4 destinations" becomes trivial.

  And, adding dynamic DNS to radsec home servers is just a plugin module.  i.e. someone could start on it today.
