Why? Why not pad requests to guarantee attenuation vector until authenticity of packets can be verified? MinimaLT does this. I think all UDP based and initial TCP should do it, doing it for existing protocols may not be possible, but why not for new? I proposed similar method for proxy-trace (bidir tracerouting) - https://github.com/ytti/proxy-trace/blob/master/draft-ytti-intarea-proxy-trace.xml#L169 -- ++ytti
