I have read this briefly. To me this seems ok, but I am somewhat
worried that this would open up a new type of ACK DOS as you could
potentially guess timestamps and attack the algorithm. The 2' and 5'
suggestions work around this, so I am (thinking out loud) if that
should not be the default. OTH it's easier to take out the session by
simply DoSing either the sender or the receiver...
