Why do you plan to remove Aggressive Mode? It is the only way to
use ID's other than IP addresses with pre-shared keys. Before I
get flamed, I agree that pre-shared keys are inferior to certs
and that identity protection is highly desirable, but, are they
so desirable that an entire mode of operation has to be deleted?
