Re: Implicit close of idle streams

Just saw you checked in the following change:

+  The first use of a new stream identifier implicitly closes all
streams in the "idle"
+  state that might have been initiated by that peer with a
lower-valued stream identifier.

That part that is confusing the most I think is the "might have been
initiated by that peer" part. The way I understood the state model,
"idle" streams are not "initiated"... All streams start in the "idle"
state. The word "initiate" is used in a number of places when talking
about putting streams into the "open" state.
