To throw my opinion into the game since I consider that I've seen most
what the boxes do today and how they are being used is that there is
different scenarios where you want to either group (group == >=1 VC's)
for a NBMA logical interface, have a point-to-point logical interface
(with broadcast capability) on a single VC or have a point-to-point or
NBMA interface with dynamically established connections. All these
should have the possibility of having multiple VC's for a single
destination with variance in QoS. Throwing LANE into the game you also
have to support logical broadcast interface with ARP.

Unclear enough? :-)
