In a limited context, I think this is mostly the correct way to do this and
HTTP is the right WG. I do, however, think that it isn't quite so simple as
the text makes out. There's a few minor details that need adding for
HTTP/3, such as some text to describe how to terminate HTTP/3 streams.

In a more broad context, I wonder how (or if)  the current discussions in
MASQUE and WebTrans about aligning on extended CONNECT over HTTP/3 factor
in to the work here. If this piece is solely focused on WebSockets that
might be OK, just trying to understand the pitch.
