No problem. Nobody ever does. I just like to point out now and again
that I do document most things. :-)

Once it's set, it remains set until another router reset is, so the
answer to your question is "yes". I hadn't thought of this, but I
suppose you could always do

dummy_to_set_address_data:
driver = redirect
address_data = some string you want to expand
data =

and then use $address_data in the following routers. (That one will
always decline, because data is set to an empty string.) I haven't
tested this, but it ought to work.
