Joe, The size of the IP identifier is mentioned as one of the problems with IPv4 fragmentation in draft-ietf-intarea-frag-fragile. The fact that intermediate nodes might fragment in IPv4 and not in IPv6 is another discrepancy between the protocols. The transport layer not in all fragments is a problem for NAT, that might addressed by encapsulating the fragmention in UDP.
