Personally I would like to use it to extract routing info from routers
on the path between my node and some destinations.

I assume these info are already communicated to nearby nodes via
routed or some other protocol, so I don't believe there is much
"sensitive" information. Any ideas on whether this is considered
bad style or if there is an alternate/polite way of getting the same info ?

	Thanks
