Oh, by "update to IKEv2", I was just referring to RFCing this draft as a 
supported extension to IKEv2, nothing else.

Can you clarify what you mean by "update" to IKEv2? During IETF 123 there were 
suggestions in the chat that this feature could be considered as part of a 
major revision of IKE. I would prefer we land this in IKE v2 so that we can 
implement it as soon as possible. The alternative is to disable classical-only 
key exchange on a per-peer basis, based on out-of-band information about the 
peer. Thinking about my organization's deployment of IPsec, we're expecting the 
downgrade prevention extension to be a much smoother upgrade path.

Best,
Chris P.
