  The Security Considerations say:
  >
  > RTP packets using the payload format defined in this specification 
  > are subject to the security considerations discussed in the RTP 
  > specification [4], and in any appropriate RTP profile.  This implies 
  > that confidentiality of the media streams is achieved by encryption; 
  > for example, through the application of SRTP [11].

  This is good.  I would like to see this expanded to cover integrity
  as well as confidentiality.

omment: 

The document says:
    
   Note that the appropriate mechanism to ensure confidentiality and 
   integrity of RTP packets and their payloads is very dependent on the 
   application and on the transport and signaling protocols employed. 
   Thus, although SRTP is given as an example above, other possible 
   choices exist. 
    

This would be more useful with a pointer to at least one other example
and/or a discussion of the application issues which vary the means by
which confidentiality and integrity are assured.
