> We don't need this field, this will save us some memory. Note that today dest_addr is *not* shipped with a message, but nevertheless filled in on the receiving side.
> We have tests which use dest_addr to determine whether the message is a unicast or multicast message. This should go away, too, and be replaced by a flag in the message itself, ie. MULTICAST. Maybe add a method Message.isMulticast().
