If this is implemented, it resolves part of the security concerns.
The other security concern is that in the past a connection was tagged
as hostile until the client authenticated itself. ORBit would run in
prevent-hostility mode until the cookie was received.
This mode basically meant that data and messages were limited in the
size that ORBit would accept. Like for instance, until a client is
authenticated, we did not allow buffers bigger than 128k to be
transfered.
Miguel.
