Historically, I believe that we've allowed additional trailer content/padding to be included at the end of mbuf chains that isn't in the IP datagram, and is silently ignored, as it isn't included in the IP packet length. I may misunderstand what was going on there, but it gives me serious pause in pondering the proposed change, as those two semantics are not really compatible with one another.
