INSIPID WG, 

Ben pointed out that we have an inconsistency in the draft. Section 4 states that endpoints SHOULD use Type 4 or Type 5 UUIDs when generating a Session Identifier, however Section 12 states that Type 4 or 5 MUST be used for privacy reasons. 

I’m inclined to change the first to MUST and thereby require that only Type 4 or Type 5 UUID’s be used. 

Does anyone have an issue with this change?
