The ipseckey record can go forward as soon as there is consensus on the
format and contents.

Summary:
sshfp is a minimalist record that only provides key footprint.
ipseckey is on the other extreme including other information that IPSEC
         protocol entities can use.

Both types of <keying> records have a place and we should play with both.
