--- Comment #1 from Sebastian Dröge (slomo) <slomo at coaxion.net> ---
The main question is if the assumption is correct that
a) currently by binding to a multicast address on Linux, we would filter all
packets that have a different destination
b) when not binding to a multicast address but to ANY, we would receive all
packets arriving on that specific port independent of destination

In general it is probably better to always bind to ANY (and possibly add a
bind-address property) and do the filtering when receiving packets if needed.
That is probably needed for meaningful behaviour on Windows anyway.
