Sounds best so far.  But why "it may be leaking"?  It is leaking this
information with 100% certainty (we're not assuming any trust in the
network).  Whether anyone is listening is another matter :-)  So how
about this refinement:

    When the mobile node sends a registration request to the i-HA from an
    untrusted network that does not go through the IPsec tunnel, it leaks
    the i-HA's address, its own identity including the NAI and the home
    address, and the Authenticator value in the authentication extensions
    to the untrusted network.  This may be a concern in some deployments.
