The spec says: "Establish a WebSocket connection given the set (host, port,
resource name, secure), along with the protocols list, a list containing just
"deflate-stream" for the extensions, and origin."

However, the "deflate-stream" extension is on option and not mandatory. The
spec should not require "deflate-stream".
