Hey Brian,
Man.. don't you sleep? 4:04AM?!
Anyway, I like your idea but I think this will be critical to record and let endusers review if their gateway is seemingly refusing RIP44 updates. These "intermittent" refusals could be coming from their malfunctioning gateway but more likely due to upstream equipment getting reconfigured and breaking the end to end Protocol 4 transport for a period of time. I've seen very similar things happening like this for DNS, SMTP, etc. but those systems all have some level of caching, retries, etc.
