When we start rationalizing server-push semantics so multiple replies 
can be sent for one request. Most of the replies will need to be 
assigned some lower priority than the requested reply - hopefully all 
within the one stream. We will have to define a new response frame 
entirely to replace reply. Why not just do it now and have initial 
implementations compatible with those later ones?
