Description

At present, if you attach to an address in the router whose semantics have not been specifically defined, you get balanced message routing semantics.

It would be useful to be able to configure the router such that it would refuse links whose source/target was not explicitly defined. E.g. by being able to configure the default semantics to be of type 'invalid' (or anything similar). (Being able to explicitly blacklist certain addresses might also be nice, but is a more exotic use case I think).

Messages sent through an anonymous link to these 'invalid' addresses would be rejected.
