Subject: [quicwg/base-drafts] Decryption failure == drop packet (#33)

We need to be absolutely explicit here: if unprotecting a packet fails, drop it.  

It's important that we have this rule to prevent trivial DoS attacks on connections.  Also, we need to make it clear that unauthenticated data does not get fed into the system unless we have very careful rules around how we handle that data.
