+@item New optional @ref{Encless, encryptionless mode} of operation.
+Technically no encryption functions are applied for outgoing packets, so
+you can not be forced to reveal your encryption keys or sued for
+encryption usage.
+@item @ref{MTU}s are configured on per-user basis.
+@item Simplified payload padding scheme, saving one byte of data.
+@item Ability to specify TAP interface name explicitly without any
+up-scripts for convenience.
