I think that Eric is really just taking my earlier email to its
logical conclusion.  The attribute isn't properly justified.  I see
three options:

You might be able to justify it on the basis that it allows
intermediaries visibility into what is going on so that they can avoid
allocating a second component, or maybe some other variant of what
Christer and I discussed.  The draft grows.

Or, you could say that this is just an update to RFC 5761 and you want
to allow for an offerer to offer without RTCP on separate
candidates/port.  That could be a very small RFC.  The draft becomes
tiny.

Or, you could simply conclude that we're going to require mux in some
implementations and live with having no RFC that "defines" that
behaviour.  The draft dies.
