Thanks, might help other people :-)

NO!

On the one hand I believe (i.e. I don't really know) that it is correct
behavior, not to register to the ils if registered to a gk.

But on the other hand it still should remain in GM. So you can work
around incomplete GKs (which is not possible within NM).

If users know that they have a working GK that does proper registration,
they can simply switch off ILS. But all others can keep it switched on.

ok, sounds good to me and solves my problems, though I don't know what
MCUs are. :-)

To put it in the FAQ suits me perfectly well.

The point with the aliases sounds even better. I didn't know that it is
possible to have multiple aliases at the gk. That's because I haven't
read any specs so far (and I actually don't want to). All I said was
phenomenologically observed ;-)
