As I pointed out, there *is* no technical argument to be made for  
using legacy standards.

Unless you consider ease of deployment, availability of debugged  
implementations etc. a technical argument.

In the absence of a general solution to bridge legacy compression into  
ROHC, every HC-over-X document that is trying to get some real-world  
applicability has to provide the solution on its own.  Just like RFC  
4901 did.

The next one in line is
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-bormann-rohc-over-802

I can certainly put in a legacy bridge there.  I'd rather use the one  
described in
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-bormann-rohc-avt-crtp-profile-00
