The only issue I see if you can get a list including SHA-1 accepted. It is easier than SHA-1 alone but not a sure bet. you might be able to sell it as a stop-gap, if there are ways to upgrade it later, especially if this is part of pushing AUTH-SYS towards the scrapheap of history. SHA-1 + SHA-256 is one possible list. The other is to include everything within the secure hash standard. I'm think of rpc-tls allowing other layers in the stack to impose further restrictions on the algorithm to be used, e.g. - Allowing ULPs to require specific hash algorithms. This would allow us to get rpc-tls out now and upgrade it when draft-ietf-nfsv4-security is out. - Allowing RPC to require specific hash algorithms when used for particular purposes such as verifying the identity of a client host using AUTH_SYS. This would allow us to get rpc-tls out now and upgrade it when an update to RFC5531 dealing with AUTH_SYS is out.
