Andy, Matt - other ideas? The caller(the apps) allocates the memory and caller(apps) frees the memory is easier in terms of tracking and freeing the memory allocated than the library allocating the memory. Also some applications like "ip" have a scenario where an "input device" and an "output device" have to be specified in the commandline. I thought such scenarios are easier to handle with this model.
