  A named, multi-TLV attribute.

  Most attributes have names.  Most attributes are TLV's.  The
Extended-Attribute encapsulates multiple TLV's.

  So... what's a "named, multi-TLV attribute"?  An attribute inside of
the Extended-Attribute that can carry other TLV's?  Like what's done in
WiMAX?

  It's a good idea.  And if most vendors have to add WiMAX support
anyways, much of the code will already exist.
