From my point of view, I would like to see both the complete 5-tuple “flows" hash and individual srchost and dsthost hashes, such that I can XOR the latter two together to get a combined “hosts” hash.  Having those available simultaneously would let me do some very neat things in sch_cake, and potentially other future work too.
