I do have two comments on the Security Considerations section.
1. PGP is mentioned in the 3rd paragraph. S/MIME should also be
listed. S/MIME is included in every major mail agent (except the one
from Qualcomm). While S/MIME suffers from the lack of ubiquitous
certificate enrollment, PGP suffers from the lack of integration into
mail stream mail agents. In my opinion, either mention both or
neither.
2. At least two more items should be added to the number list of
"mistakes." The first is replay detection. The second is the use of
confidentiality mechanisms without integrity mechanisms.
