I regard the whole CS1 thing as having never been particularly
successful for a variety of reasons - in particular because
we seemed to be the only ones attempting to use it with rigor.

I would like to patch in and submit "LE" support to mainline cake.

The RFC retires CS1 - which I wouldn't retire - but see:

https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8622.html

Also it seems like a good idea to also submit the NS bit
exclusion from the ack filter to mainline as well.
