It seems that we are really discussing two different but
related issues.  Your point of view is from the protocol
level.  But we are talking about an app which tries to
do the right thing.  And the question is whether it is
useful to provide such an API for those apps to do their
jobs.

The API is above SCTP.  We are not talking about changing
the protocol.
