I wrote that based on a conversation a while back with Carsten (before he was
chair)
in which he said this was not typically done.
Carsten, care to elaborate?
As for the effect on the draft, we can just delete this text if there's any
objection.
It was just meant as background info and has no normative weight whatsoever.

"Given the very limited packet sizes, it is highly desirableto

Actually link-layer assist is quite commonly done - see:
RFC 3242 - RObust Header Compression (ROHC): A Link-LayerAssisted Profile for

Also, I have a draft written on point-to-multipoint headercompression that you
may find
useful for this section.
