I'd be OK with this. No websocket affordances, no non-semantic HEADERS, no
problem!
Seriously, though, there's no particular need now to send HEADERS frames at
random points during a stream's lifecycle (after the initial
HEADER/CONTINUATION block, of course). Why allow it at all? Make it a
GOAWAY-able (or at least RST_STREAM-able) offense.
