COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you for this document -- I found it a fascinating read.

I am balloting NoObj, but have some nits to offer to further improve it.

1: 1.  Hop-by-hop (HBH) encryption of media, metadata, and feedback messages
between the the endpoints and SFU s/the the/the/

2: "the receiving client collects all the fragments of the ciphertext, using an
appropriate sequencing and start/end markers in the transport. " s/an// (I
think!)

3: ""_80" indicates a eighty-bit tag,"
s/a/an/

4: Key IDs in this scheme have two parts, a "key generation" and a "ratchet
step". s/,/:/

5: "Ratcheting the key forward is useful when adding new receivers to an
SFrame-based interaction, since it assures that the new receivers can't decrypt
any media encrypted before they were added." s/assures/ensures/ (I think...?!)

6: Such a brute-force attack will have an expected sucess rate of the following
form: s/sucess/success/
