Hi Chris et al, I've had a read-through of the document, thanks. The first thing that I noticed is that the specification is very obviously written from the perspective of someone who's very deep into the details of HTTP/3 and QUIC, and is either confusing or silent about how this relates to HTTP as a protocol overall. If this is going to be a new, version-independent feature of HTTP, I think we should specify it as one in the first instance -- especially given how poorly past attempts have failed when they weren't well-integrated (e.g., push). So, I think it needs a non-trivial rewrite that shouldn't affect implementations, but unfortunately will affect the editors. I'm willing to work on a PR if that'd be helpful -- but it may take a bit of time to get right. Would that work for you/them? Once that happens, I think it'll be easier to evaluate the technical content. If I understand it correctly, I have no problem with the on-the-wire details, although the capsule protocol feels like premature abstraction at this point. Could someone speak to the thinking behind it?
