It would seem so.

The header field doesn't contain origin information because that is
derived from the request.  The header field says: "for requests to
*the origin of this request*, please send here: list of service
endpoint tuples"; when the frame is sent on stream 0, it lacks that
context.

I suggest that you define the frame as length (sadly, 255 bytes isn't
long enough to hold the longest conceivable origin string) plus origin
plus the remainder being exactly the same as the Alt-Svc header field.
