I seem to recall that I originally proposed padding with zeros, with the
receiver required to drop packets that didn't comply. My original thinking
was to provide some measure against garbage flooding, but it seems like
that also helps resist Wagner's attack.

I don't remember how the text got changed, but it's not important. The
question is, do we want to change the ESP spec re padding?
