IPsec (and IKE) allow the addition of new ciphers without those ciphers being
considered "part of" IPsec. That is, no one should feel compelled to implement
every cipher for which there is an RFC and a number in the registry.
This document is currently not being considered as a WG item. The authors have,
correctly, proposed it as an informational submission.
