However, I would suspect that clearly specifying how SCTP and DCCP

home NATs are frequently based.
Completely agree. And as a coincidence, earlier today a Linux
developer posted this on the DCCP mailing list:

As regards to work underway there is an implementation in the Linux
kernel to provide NAT/connection tracking for DCCP and it is believed
to work well - basically does the same as UDP/TCP. This has been in
the Linux kernel for sometime now, so may be of some use for this
work.
But note that this isn't - yet - based on any IETF spec. But the
author of the likely BEHAVE work item on this and the implementors of
the Linux code are chatting, I believe.
