   Yes, this is done by IKEv2 NAT Traversal already (so saying
   that it must be done would be redundant).
   
=> you don't answer to the question: it is not required to
run NAT presence detection.

   The simplest solution might
   be just to place the IP addresses in this payload (and mandate
   comparing them with the IP header)...
   
   Any comments from other on this?
   
=> so I am not the one which cares about peer address protection (:-).
