I didn't want to violate more common thinking about naming by using

That's right. We should prefix it as "*/the/*" EAP Tunnel to make people
aware that it's the one-and-only type to be used. Yes, I'm actually
dreaming that the deployed world out there would settle to use just one
in a distant future...
