Privacy and data minimization doesn't seem appropriate for a module or a box 
on the chart.  It's a small change to the basic packet.

Authentication makes sense as a module or two.  It adds a wrapper to the basic 
packet, but no changes to it.

But that brings up an interesting point.  What is the purpose of this chart?
