I had a thought on the use of zero UDP checksums in IPv6...

What if we allowed the use of zero checksums for UDP as a _negotiated option_ in IETF tunneling protocols? Those protocols could default to the use of UDP Lite (or UDP with non-zero checksums if their designers prefer) and negotiate the use of Zero UDP checksums when both sides support it.
