Hi --

I was reading the _updown code and I noticed quite a bit of parallelism between the prepare-client code and the doroute code.

Observation: There are 8 lines of code in prepare-client that don't appear in doroute. One could incorporate those lines in doroute, triggered by an optional second argument to doroute, such as

        doroute del OK-if-none
and then use that as the entire implementation of prepare-client.

IMHO this would make the code more robust, more maintainable, and more understandable to folks who need to customize it.
