Yeah, let's see what macaddr8 looks like, and we can move from there --
I suppose adapting for macaddr would not be terribly different, but we
don't have to do both in a single commit. I don't expect that TID would
necessarily be similar since we have lots of bespoke code for that in
lots of places; it might not affect anything (it should not!) but then
it might. No reason not to move forward incrementally.
