Re: [quicwg/base-drafts] Server's preferred address (#1251)

> +A client might need to perform a connection migration before the server's
+connection migration has completed.  In this case, the client SHOULD perform
+path validation to both the original and preferred server address from the
+client's new address concurrently.
+
+If path validation of the server's preferred address succeeds, the client MUST
+abandon validation of the original address and migrate to using the server's
+preferred address.  If path validation of the server's preferred address fails,
+but validation of the server's original address succeeds, the client MAY migrate
+to using the original address from the client's new address.
+
+If the connection to the server's preferred address is not from the same client
+address, the server MUST protect against potential attacks as described in
+{{address-spoofing}} and {{on-path-spoofing}}.  In addition to intentional
+simultaneous migration, this might also occur because the client's access
+network used a different NAT binding for the server's preferred address.

I've added some text, but it feels duplicative of {{address-spoofing}}.  Concrete suggestions of "more text" would be welcome.
