Thank you for the reference to the thread. After reading through it one
thing became obvious: while it would likely not be difficult to provide
support for a 100-continue like mechanism within spdy, the protocols
current design would essentially require a suboptimal hack in order to
retain existing http/1.1 semantics and preserve spdy-to-http1.1 pass
through or would require that we design a new similar mechanism, optimized
for spdy that changes an aspect of http/1.1 semantics.

As Mark  has pointed out recently, however, our job here currently is to
only define a new transport for http and not to change existing http
semantics. So i am at a bit of a loss as to what the charter will let us do
in this case.

Mark... any guidance?
