Yeah, when I saw the recent sudden work to get WireGuard into FreeBSD
13, I was excited but also nervous since it's been in beta/RC for a
while, just a bit late to introduce important features.  I think the
current plan is sensible and will produce a result everyone likes.

That's a great idea!  WireGuard is what finally got me to run
OpenBSD-current, so I could test the snaps.
