The Sec Dir review from Olafur Gumundsson suggests adding a reference to RFC 5036 in the Security Considerations section. --- It may be appropriate to update Eric's coordinates

Let's imagine that someone defines a way to encrypt MPLS traffic. At that point ought one recommend that the encoding of the IP addresses into the opaque value ought also be secure as otherwise that encoding might help an attacker to decide which nodes to attack when or what traffic to attack how. I guess this is not really caused by this wildcard handling at all so I'm not asking that anything be fixed here. But it might be good to look at this cross-layer leakage issue when/if we do start working on MPLS confidentiality.
