I am concerned about existing implementations which are currently in the
wild. There are plenty of implementations that do support "setup" attribute
for DTLS (including all the WebRTC enabled browsers). If existing "setup"
attribute would be extended to include the protocol suffix it will not be
properly handled by current implementations. If setup attribute is used
with protocol prefix, it is unclear if it will be correctly recognized by
the remote party.

On the other hand we can definitely use protocol attribute syntax for the
connection attribute for DTLS, since this behavior is not defined anywhere
yet.

Also, please let me know if you need a more detailed explanation of
dtls_ufrag option and its rational or if you simply need more time to get
it sorted out.
