The security branch would certainly make sense considering what IPF is. I

I like the idea of a port but from the prior discussion having a port sounds
like it may cause more questions/grumbling than not having one.  I'd be
grateful to have a port as an option, I'm just not sure I'd want to be in
the maintainer's shoes.
