There was some healthy commentary made on PR
https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/pull/1919 (Digest option 2.5),
which I've worked on to address or spin off into follow up items. It seems
like we have some rough consensus here and the changeset is large, so my
intention is to merge this in the next day or two in order to not block
progress on other things. Please use that time to make any additional
comments.

Cheers
