It seems to me there could be an authentication method declared later that 
doesn't want to support a reporting format other than "arf", or for which a 
reporting interval doesn't make any sense, so I don't think it's useful to make 
them universally-defined properties.

However, I suspect a section in the authfailure-report draft suggesting that 
future extensions will probably need <some set of properties here, including at 
least a reporting address>, as advisory text only, would not be harmful.

I don't see the text you're referencing here about exponential growth in 
authfailure-report.  Can you point me to it?

I suppose it would be nice if all of the "ri" definitions had identical 
behavior (and I think they currently do), but I don't see a reason to require 
it.

Since participation in these extensions is not mandatory, I imagine one 
electing to honor what "ri" says can't be stateless, by definition.
