I've been assuming that the Web Socket protocol spec was what UAs wanted
to implement. If it's not, then that's a bigger problem.
I don't mind if we turn specific extensions on or off. I just don't think
it should be optional. If UAs do not want to implement what the protocol
spec says, I'm equally happy for the API spec to just disallow that
extension.
