Koen, Before you go on saying what can be fixed and what not can be fixed in the current draft I think it would be instructive to point out that you have yet to identify a correctness problem in the *current*design* based on what is *supported* by the specification. As far as I can tell, you have until now shown what will break *if* the design was different in that a proxy could pick what it wanted to comply with and forward the rest. This is *not* a part of the current design nor do I believe this is in any way implied by the specification asis (in fact I have shown you at least one scenario where this does not work). Please be aware that if are proposing a *different* design than what is currently described then that is fine but let's try and keep things separate.
