There actually is a draft titled "NAT Friendly Application Design Guidelines"
< draft-ietf-nat-app-guide-02.txt> attempting to do just that. I do believe,
this can be very valuable to future application developers that need to 
deploy their apps in networks with NAT devices.

Thanks for bringing this up. If someone has valuable input on this, please
send the same to the draft author. Thanks.
