First, what do you mean by XTLS? If you mean you want to define a TLS variant, in the same way that was done with DTLS, then yes that is a scary notion (although it is probably no more scary than ESessions). If by XTLS you mean you want to define a usage of TLS (e.g. base64 encoding segments of a TLS stream), then that shouldn't be scary at all. -Justin
