I actually don't see a problem with just documenting that verbs consumers that want to work on top of iWARP must follow the documented iWARP rules.
That is what I've been trying to push. Both MVAPICH2 and OMPI have been open to adjusting their transports to adhere to this requirement.
I wouldn't mind implementing something to enforce this in the IWCM or the iWARP drivers IF there was a clean way to do it. So far there hasn't been a clean way proposed.
