Thanks for pointing this out..

  I went and looked at gruu-reg-event draft and saw what kind
of security consideration text is there, the text described a  
authorization
policy limiting only allowing subscription to those who actually  
registered
and requested the temp-gruu.

  I do agree that implication of reg-event and some consideration for
the implementors will be beneficial and will add some text in the  
security
consideration.

  Many Thanks
   Shida
