The draft talks about the EHC Context to be exchanged via IKE, but I do 
not see this in the draft?

Negotiating the whole Context may be quite a bit and needs to be thought 
out in a secure sense?

But just negotiating a SCHC RuleID may be simplier.  this could be the 
sole tie-in with SCHC as the actual SCHC RuleID never goes over the 
wire.  The SPIs imply the RuleID.

There could be some additional pieces like if the RuleID is for 
UDP-Transport, the UDP ports for the SPI pair could be sent so one 
RuleID could serve multiple UDP apps.

But I kind of assume that as there is a code implementation, there is a 
good understanding of what is needed, but I don't see it in the draft.

Pointers are appreciated.
