Y'all,

RFC 2292bis, section 3.2 describes ICMPv6 type filtering.
Would it be useful to have protocol (Next header) filtering
on an ICMP socket?

e.g. I am developing SCTP and would only like to receive ICMP
_error_ messages for SCTP.  i.e. I would like only packets in which
the offending IPv6 packet has a Next Header field == IPPROTO_SCTP
in the IPv6 header.
