Me too.  The DS is authoritative data in the parent and not in the
child.  Therefore, IMO, it's parent policy that ought to determine
these things.  That said, one parent policy could be, "We base our DS
algorithm selection on what the child tells us, because we want to
have a consistent approach across the zone cut."
