Kind of a vague question but...    

     As evidenced by the discussion ongoing on the V6OPS mailing list, changing the value in the MSS is a common (and somewhat useful) practice for dealing with tunnels.  I am behind on my TCPINC reading but most of the discussion I remember was related to TCP header fields, not TCP option fields.  To what extent do the various solutions allow modification of options?
