I appreciate the desire to contain discussions, but let's be very clear
about this: this issue was raised as part of last call for IKEv2, and a
significant number of folks have offered support for the notion that
this is a significant shortcoming in the current spec. It is
inappropriate to simply quash the discussion because you don't like the
idea.

If last call has degenerated to a symbolic gesture which is not intended
to really flush out final issues, then I guess you are within your
rights. Otherwise, what is the resolution process when issues such as
these are raised? I'm not sure what the appropriate procedure is here,
but this is important. Do we need to take it to the IESG, or can we
solve it here?
