   I do not completely agree with your statement - especially, as
  having a different ISP than the mobile operator doesn't have anything
  to do with PDP Type PPP. It can be achieved with PDP Type IP as
  well. Anyways, I wonder if this has to be discussed here.
   
=> there are not many other solutions (GGSN as a mobile IP foreign agent,
etc) and the only widely deployed solution in a similar context, ADSL,
is to switch PPP in the box which has the role equivalent to the GGSN.

   Back a question: We deliberately put the case where there is PPP
  connection directly from the mobile to the ISP as an out of scope case
  as we would tendo to believe that it is part of a more general case
  (i.e. the ISP cases). Are you happy with this decision, or are you
  objecting to that? (You seemed to be happy about it as we discussed it
  the last time.)
   
=> I have no objection as soon as it is clear that it is out of the scope
of the document. IMHO the scenario documents should not try to cover
too many cases each, the only real constraint is the whole set doesn't
neglect some important cases.

=> argh!
   
   Was this for estetical reasons

=> it was.
