- Increase speed and reduce latency.
+ Median setup time is currently about 135 ms for NTCP2 and 187 ms for SSU,
+ even though NTCP2 has an additional round trip; replacing ElGamal in
+ SSU2 should reduce it, but other changes may also help.

+- (maybe) Prevent traffic amplification attacks from spoofed source addresses
+ via "address validation"? Is this necessary, or are there other
+ ways that would not require an additional round trip?
+ Does this conflict with the requirement to prevent traffic identification?
+ See below.
- Make packet identification easier, to reduce reliance on fallbacks and
heuristics that make the code overly complex.
