Some people in the room said that we should only do the AEAD and skip the

I'm not saying whether we need or don't need these combinations. I don't see 
much use for them personally. My question to the list now is
whether everyone agrees that it's fine to drop them and leave only the combined 
mode algorithm in the draft.

Yes. We have too many algorithms in IKE already. If we believe that
combined mode algorithms are better than classic ENCR+INTEG algorithms,
and I think we do, than we should not be adding more old style ENCR+INTEG
algorithms.
