Greetings,
	I guess I don't see the harm in exploring further 802.10 style
tagging. I believe we all agree with the need to support port based
VLANs. (We at least have this as a requirement.) We also need to
support port based VLANs over backbones. One way to provide this
support is with tagging. It would be nice if this tagging could
(optionally!) work in conjunction with some type of security.

	Based on the dialog in Montreal with 802.10 there are some
issues (maybe big ones) that need to be resolved (i.e. security etc.).
We may as well start this process now. It may take a while.
