Dino,
I thought that lisp-crypto was overlapping with the use of P bit already. My mistake: I see that the picture in the lisp-crypto draft mentions indeed the P bit.

I think what GPE is trying to propose, is an extension to the LISP protocol that together with crypto would allow LISP to handle a set of "features": multiprotocol, services, metadata... IMO, if we have to change the data path, we should rather look at a change that enables a set of "features" rather than a single one.

there any plans to solve this?  Should this at least be mentioned somewhere?

Both this draft and lisp-crypto are proposals to extend the LISP encap with new 
features. I don't think they need to refer each other at this point.

I just note that by adding multiprotocol support, one could add a shim header 
that provides encryption services to the LISP payload.
When I selected the location of the K bits, I knew the P-bit was predefined in 
the gpe draft, so I didn't use that location. There are no flag bits left if 
GPE and lisp-crypto are accepted as working group items.
