Andrew;

meta-question:  what is the purpose of the security considerations section?  
tutorial about broad topics in security?  fair warning about limitations of the 
current specification?  guidelines for safe operation?  other concerns?

each of these warrants different kinds and extent of documentation.  unless we 
are clear about the goals of the section, it could easily turn too much into a 
generic tutorial.
