I admit I'm not terribly interested in ROHC. I don't know too much
about it, but I didn't want to exclude it from my draft either.

Yes, I'd thought about that before, too. If we were free to change the
semantics and functioning of ESP, there's a few more thigns I recall I
was thinking about at the time (my memory is suffering, since this was

the semantics of ESP for now.
