There are 2 use cases:
 - debugging and monitoring RPL behaviour
 - we'd like to add another API to increase the sequence number - this
   is useful when you Import() a node from another database and would
   like to bump its sequence number up to a previously known value, so
   that the rest of the network can talk to it
