Yes, agree with you on these 2 existing issues, but I'd like to use a separate patch to fix them,
And let this patch focus on multicast feature.
If you have already a patch to fix them, that's great.

Is this bug introduced by this patch or it is an existing bug?
If it is introduced by this patch, a v2 patch is necessary,
Otherwise, a separate patch is suggested.
