Comment:

 Resolving this as wontfix due to upcoming prop224 which solves this issue
 by introducing "IP-enc-key"<->"descriptor-signing-key" cross-
 certifications. I see no reason for implementing effectively the same
 structure on top of legacy TOS (pre-prop224 era). Until prop224 got
 implemented this should not cause any problems.
