Marc,

Your words above - to the extent they are true — are a reason 
to have a well documented BPsec API which applications can use
if/when appropriate.

Such an API probably should be documented in an Informational RFC.
Is that something you might want to undertake — since you are so
passionate about it ??

From a logic perspective, those words quoted above are really NOT a reason 
for  BPsec to be optional to implement.

Yours,

Ran
