I don't have enough experience with that scenario to agree or
disagree, but if you feel strongly that the world would be better off
with this, you should make your case to the HTTP WG. It's possible it
would be considered out of scope for httpbis since it would seem to
change the protocol in an incompatible way. But it would at least get
on the radar for HTTP 2.0.

Mark.
