Current draft said; (in both problem statements and goals)

4.6  Security

Although IEEE 802.15.4 provides AES link layer security, a complete
end-to-end security is needed.

8.  Security threats at different layers must be clearly understood
and documented.  Bootstrapping of devices into a secure network
could also be considered given the location, limited display,
high density and ad hoc deployment of devices.



So, I prefer not to address more specific something in Security Considerations. 
Just refering them into Security Considerations would be fine for me. If 
rechartering requires more details on security issue, it could be a separated 
document (at least *6lowpan security threat analysis*).
