Please, hold it on. I don't see the point of consuming 8 extra byte in
every extra destroy message. You have tons of resources in userspace to
implement whatever performance structure to store the conntrackd but we
do have limited bandwidth in netlink. Instead we may dump the id but I
don't support this option either.
