PR #148 in the DTLS 1.3 draft (https://github.com/tlswg/dtls13-spec/pull/148) 
proposes banning implicit CIDs. This comes at an obvious cost in terms of bytes 
on the wire. However, in discussions on a parallel thread [1 and related], it's 
noted that this removes header malleability. 

Given that we don't have backing analysis suggesting that malleability (with 
the other AAD properties) is safe*, the chairs propose merging this PR as-is. 
To that end, please respond to the list by May 28, 2020, indicating whether or 
not you support this PR.

Thanks,
Chris, on behalf of the chairs

*One proposal to address this is by extending the AAD to include the 
pseudo-header. However, the chairs feel this is an unnecessary divergence from 
QUIC.
