  WiMAX uses the same attribute format as proposed here.  Changes that
are incompatible with WiMAX should be discouraged.

  If it's just stealing a bit (which WiMAX doesn't use), that sounds
fine.  The ability to group legacy RADIUS attributes via a method other
than tags would be good.

  One question: If we DO permit this for legacy RADIUS attributes, what
does the "C" bit mean?  Do we use the WiMAX method for splitting
attributes encrypted with the "Tunnel-Password" method?
