I have not yet fully read the entire draft because a brief reading shows
that it way to complex for an update of OpenPGP.  An update of OpenPGP
to modern algorithms _and_ already implemented extensions was the
original goal for rfc4880bis.  crypto-refresh is something different and
more aligned to ideas floating around here to do everything a new from
scratch.

>   * Add "Literal Data Meta Hash" from draft-koch-openpgp-2015- rfc4880bis

That's actually a gadget I introduced as a counter argument to some
people who consider this a real problem

Remove that and we are back to the existing AEAD packets.  Fine.

As I said, I have not read the new v5 things in detail but I can imagine
that we can still change the format.  We have been cautious enough to
tell people that v5 has not yet been finished.
