If there are any additional checks that can be put
into the Portal, I’m happy to add them if we can reach a consensus on what those checks
should be...

Do you think it is viable to add another manual validation step for any gateway config
that has one of these properties:
- external gateway address is within 44.0.0.0/8
- advertised subnet is not owned by the gateway operator
This would at least prevent mishaps like we had this week, because especially a gateway
address within 44.0.0.0/8 should be throughly validated so that it is properly BGP routed
to somewhere, and the operator of that destination can properly process the IPIP packets
and not route them in a loop.
