This is interesting.  Almost all of the discussion about
"separate bank accounts", etc., has been focused on "protection
of the IASA from ISOC".  But you drew the other inference, which
I discussed at more length in my "blowing the bolts" note, i.e.,
that it is at least as likely that the IETF might need
protection from the IASA or even, once large amounts of money
are involved, from some combination of the IAB, IESG, and IASA.
