Well, I was just giving a sketch.  The SHOULD be adaptable means --
and perhaps it'd be good to say this more explicitly -- that the
implementation shouldn't be so tied to TCP that it can't accommodate
anything else.  Just as we're trying to isolate the TCP-specific
pieces in the document, the implementations should isolate the
TCP-specific pieces there.

Of course, what you have to do to run over SCTP... would be in an
"SCTP Considerations" section of the document, or in a separate
document that addresses HTTP over SCTP.  I think of the TCP section
being included in the base doc as an acknowledgement that it's the
"mandatory to implement" version, at least for now.
