IMHO doing significant work on af_key is a waste of time.  It has no
advantages at all over xfrm_user since neither is portable.  So we
should discourage people from using af_key wherever possible.

I wouldnt disagree except some apps like racoon which depend on pfkey
are unfortunately beyond repair. Timo has a pretty good handle on the
issue from what i have seen so far, so it pretty much seems to be there
without significant changes (if the two issues are separated).
