There are 3 distinct domains in the context of
policies

1. Administrative domain - Relates to setting policies
2. Enforcement domain - Relates to consuming policies
3. Functional domain - Relates to the nature of the
policies

The administrative domain is modeled as a QoS domain
in the QPIM and is reflected in the containment tree.

There are probably stronger arguments to be made for
reflecting the enforcement/functional domain in the
containment tree, from a policy distribution point of
view.

I would like to hear the views of the authors on this
topic.
