If you think about a simple multi-homing situation where a person

they will announce all of their routes to both providers.

The feature I would like is to set the _packet filter_ based on the
_received routes_ over BGP.  Actually, received routes post prefix list.

Hi Leo,

Since you've configured a prefix list to specify what BGP routes
you're willing to accept from the simple multihomed customer (you
have, right?) why set a source filter from the same data instead of
trying to build it from routing table guesswork?
