while on my current trip to CA I was introduced to the joys of in-n-out
burger.  Turns out that they have an off-menu "grilled cheese sandwich"
which is really a cheeseburger without the beef. 

we could provide these very security aware people an off-menu labeled
ESP + null auth + null encryption for use with their "other mechanisms
in place" and avoid the need to build two different label & security
attribute negotiation protocols.
