In your above list of IP addresses, I have the feeling that we can't really tell what is "public" and what is "private" given that 10.100.* doesn't look any more public/private than 10.96.*

I believe we use a few of the "what is a private IP address" detection, but when everything falls under RFC1918, we are unable to tell which is actually routable.

(I presume that all of these machines actually have multiple network interfaces, and multiple potential addresses.)

It is true that in 2.0 we don't model preferred spaces for accessing machines very well. We do model what spaces applications should interact with, but that doesn't give information about the machine itself.
