Just one minor note -- this is a great discussion to see happening!

I think it would be okay to say something like "some transport protocols
may provide a way to indicate that the server is busy and the client should
retry after an interval; this type of status update would be appropriate
while the server is waiting for an introspection response".  Which does
provide guidance, but in a non-normative fashion that does not require or
prohibit any given transport protocol.
