Issue: TE-IDENTITY

 ISSUE: TE-IDENTITY. Action on Henrik: Add OPTIONAL for how the server

We shouldn't disallow identity; q=0.

In section 14.39

Change

The TE request-header field is similar to Accept-Encoding, but restricts
the transfer-codings (section 3.6) that are acceptable in the response.

to

The TE request-header field is similar to Accept-Encoding, but indicates
the transfer-codings (section 3.6) that are preferred in the response. The
client is not guaranteed that the server recognizes the information in a TE
request header field.
