I do not have technical reasoning for my position here but.. Personally 
I would not start renaming NAI. Quite a few documents refer to RFC4282 
and implicitly to this document and it would be confusing to change the 
name this late. IMHO what matters here is the functionality & technical 
corrections the I-D provides. If we need to finetune Section 1.1. 
terminology, let's do it.
