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

Edit: My comments have been addressed in discussion, with the expectation
of some very minor edits.

I agree with all 3 points of Barry's discuss.

I think the normative language in section 2.1 is ambiguous about whether
it applies to all stun implementations used by a browser, SIP, or XMPP,
or just those that "implement this draft". A thoughtful reader can infer
the answer from the fact that the draft does not update STUN, but it
might be helpful to clarify.

[Removed some comments that have been explained to my satisfaction]

Nits:

-- Section 1: 

I agree with Barry that the first reference to STUN should probably go in
the previous sentence.

Should reference to " Section 4.5 of [RFC7376]" really be 4.6"? 4.5 talks
about a MiTM learning USERNAME.  4.6 talks about hosting multiple realms
from the same IP address. (And as Barry mentioned, these are really "List
entries 5 or 6 in Section 4")
