The term "MA-Protocol-ID" is used consistently in version -06 (and there is a note to say that it is not the same as an IP protocol number).

The text in 5.5.1 could be clearer on the fact that the Protocol-Identifier is not the IP protocol number, but a number from a GIMPS registry. (It can't be the IP protocol number, because some of the protocols are not directly above IP - like TLS. And even if it was, we could still need different numbers for e.g. forwards vs. reverse TCP.) Also, the term Protocol Identifier is not consistent; Protocol Indicator is also used. (Maybe we should use an obviously GIMPS name, like MA-Protocol-ID.)
