I'm quite happy to contribute language that describes what YFS is doing
now for callback protection, but I will note (as mentioned above) that
it does require changes outside of just the SetCallbackKey RPC. So, if
we are to consider it, it needs to be considered as part of the main
rxgk-afs document.

Why don't you start by just telling us what you're doing, in broad
terms?  Some people feel differently, but personally, I don't think an
I-D or a formal specification is required to get an idea across for
discussion.  If you do that, start a new thread, please?

I'm in a similar position as jhutz; I think I understand what the callback protection mechanism should look like, and it doesn't involve protocol level changes outside of SetCallBackKey. (I think it looks very similar to jhutz's idea.) Possibly because I think I know what it should look like, I'm having a hard time imaginging what changes outside of SetCallBackKey could be made, so a general sense of what you're doing would be greatly appreciated.
