It does state on a non-application consistant basis.  Since I generally
deploy it between an application layer gateway and a non-stateful filter
that's never been a big thing for me.  Generally I've only found it useful
for non-state protocols like DNS anyway, since application layer gateways
keep better state for everything else I've ever allowed.
