I more or less agree with you.  In fact, I have proposed moving
the keying material into a separate header, as I have explained
in length in other messages.  If such a change is made, the role
of AH would be within the purpose of RFC2402, IMHO.

This issue will be discussed in Vienna; we've reserved time
for it at the SEND WG meeting.  See the proposed WG agenda
at the SEND ML.

Now, independent on that, the newest version of the said draft
is draft-ietf-send-ipsec-01.txt
