Weiming,
You dont need to break down any other TLV. Only the portion that
contains the data as described in the proposal. Any outer TLV contains
this part and its length is appropriately set. Does that make sense?

In any case, is this issue worth time we are spending? It is a corner
case; and rules of optimization are simple: you optimize only for the
common case not a corner case. 

Lets please close this issue. Should we just put a note somewhere in the
appendix and move on?

cheers,
jamal
