 As it stands now, BGPSEC is opt-in.    So it seems that clearly
 documenting these issues is more operative than make absolute
 requirements about them.

Does this mean BGPSEC is not designated as a standards track document?
how can a security system actually work if it's "opt in?" It sounds like
this is an area that needs some discussion around it.

A standards track protocol is usually mandatory to implement, but using
it is a local context determination.  I expect that's what was meant by opt-in.
