Is it clarified in the NFSv4.1 draft?

Yep, I agree.

I recall a few years back at a CITI bake-a-thon there was a certain
server vendor who had trouble with loopback callback addresses,
probably because their implementation was server-only, so an NFSv4
callback from loopback would make no sense for them.  The client in
this case was sending a loopback callback address because it hadn't
implemented a callback service and wanted to prevent the server from
calling it back.

Do we have a high degree of certainty that sending an ANY address is
appropriate if the client can't determine a reasonable callback
address to send with SETCLIENTID?

Is it at least OK for Linux's NFSv4 server?

If we think this might be a problem, I can change all this back to
simply failing the mount request when the mount.nfs command can't
figure out a valid callback address.
