Well, i guess that there a couple of issues that we have been 
discussing that are relevant imho:
- context tags: where to carry them?
- shim state management: in particular, how to finnish shim sessions 
(how to discard shim state, garbage collection) how to detect state 
loss, and its relation with other signaling.

i guess we still have a long way to get consensus, but it may be worth 
discussing about this...
