Fred,
How would you achieve backwards compatibility with legacy implementations? If
backwards compatibility cannot be achieved, maybe you are talking about a new
protocol, that will ultimately replace GRE?

> Abstract:
> GRE tunnels use IPv4 or IPv6 fragmentation of the delivery packet
> when the delivery packet exceeds the tunnel MTU, or when otherwise
> necessary. This can cause problems when unmitigated IPv4
> fragemntation ensues, or when middleboxes drop IPv6 fragments
> unconditionally. This document proposes GRE tunnel fragmentation
> which avoids these pitfalls..
