I'm missing something here.  I'm not arguing that eduroam should use
certificate validation. I'm simply arguing that there should be a MTI
certificate validation strategy.  We're documenting a generic mechanism
here, not eduroam practice, right?  I agree we want eduroam to comply
with the spec, but an MTI security mechanism you choose not to use in
your enviroment doesn't violate the spec.
