Regarding the standards-track extensions to SPD.. I don't think that we 
need extensions to
SPD in order to provide IKEv2 peer authentication via CGAs. We just have 
to define how CGA
Security Policies should look like, as described in sections 4.1 and 
4.2  of
draft-laganier-ike-ipv6-cga-02.

Contrary to SPD, we need extensions to Peer Authorization Database, in 
order to provide
possibility for Security Gateway to store peer endpoints' CGA parameters 
in its PAD and to
exchange those CGA Parameters with peer Security Gateway in the initial 
IKE exchanges.
This is proposed in draft-laganier-ike-ipv6-cga-02 (marked as TBD).
