I must admit to being somewhat uncomfortable with the potential for using this space to hide that actual course of a DoS -- yes, this is somewhat addressed in the Security Considerations, but that doesn't actually remove the problem.
That said, the sad fact is that with so many networks not doing BCP38 you already have no faith in the source address of a packet IMO the benefits outweigh the risks.
