As I spoke today, I prefer having informative text on the retransmission
issue without using a requirement language such as MUST/SHOULD. This is
because a lower-layer can be designed in multiple different ways to deal
with silent discarsion of EAP messages, including immediate termination
of the lower-layer session, and it is difficult to determine what the
best way is. In general, it depends on the characteristics of the target
application. For example, an application that is capabile of
server-driven retransmission can simply rely on EAP-layer
retransmissions to deal with this issue.

In any case, I am happy to review text.
