Let me see if i understand:
Do you want that the base spec explicitly adds a bit in the context 
establishment exchange that means that insert/don't insert shim header 
and nothing else so that in other document where the mechanisms for 
suppressing the shim header can use that?, or
Do you want to include both the bit in the establishment exchange and 
the mechanisms used to suppress the shim header in the core shim spec?

I mean are we talking about adding a single bit for future 
extensibility or the bit plus the complete sets of mechanisms in the 
core spec?
