You are right.  If client doesn't know that a re-bind has happened and
therefore sends data using the same Id, it's trackable.  In this case I
think the trade-off you are doing is letting the session survive even you
are potentially trackable.  This is probably Nikos' use case.

My use case is an IoT device that voluntarily (or better, knowingly)
migrates its attachment from IP to GSM-SMS and vice-versa and wants to
keep the (painfully) negotiated session open.  Here the client is in
complete control of the situation and can do the Id rollover at the right
point in time.
