That was mostly a sideways reference to the periodic claims by fans
of "stateful packet filtering" that by writing enough of the IP and
application stack in their stateful rules they could do anything
that an application proxy does. I wasn't thinking about the
possibility that there might be other application proxies available
that strip active content.
