WH> I would agree to that

Just in case, I might want to clarify this won't be encapsulation since I think what plain-mode does is protocol conversion.
My concern is protocol conversions between mptcp-tcp and mptcp-udp might be very different. Also, if we try to support other protocols, we might need other conversion rules.

Thanks,
