The principle questions still stand unanswered:

What is the motivation for this? What do you gain? Does it create
some large architectural and performance in efficiency?

How often do the copyright owners on content give a flying fig in
a rolling donut about efficiency if it interferes with being able
to control who accesses the content, and how?

Look at the legislative history of attempts to fix the
anti-circumvention clause of the DMCA so it's not illegal to do
technical tricks to access content you have a legal right to
access.  That should tell you all you need to know about the
motivation for this....



Thanks for validating for me that this is pretty much what John Schiel
said earlier:


Almost sounds like the perfect protocol to allow the combination 
Internet/content provider to keep all content coming from where
they want the content to come from instead of the freedom to
choose
where the
content comes from.
