OK. Let me be *very* specific.

The issue was discussed on the list - see my summary of the debate we
had and a call for additional input:
http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tcpm/current/msg04604.html

Nobody else weighed in. At that point TCP-AO had the same recommendation
as IPsec (standards-track), and did not include specific indications (as
per your informational-track doc).

I asked for input at the WG meeting in Stockholm, and the notes indicate:

  - Issues raised – ICMP handling
    o No need to do more than IPsec

I raised the issue, and we did not have any additional concerns raised
at the meeting. We did not make a new decision on this at the meeting.
