Heh.

Although it does raise an interesting question. I can imagine a scenario
where participants have been allowed to join a VPN (say, in order to
punch through firewalls so they can thence communicate more "easily")
but are otherwise *not* mutually trusting. Indeed, in some cases, any
leakage of client end-point identity can be dangerous [to them!]. Be
interesting to know how best to handle that.
