Has anyone considered a CoAP-Option that would compress well-known prefixes?
So, instead of:
    Uri-Path ".well-known"
    Uri-Path "brski"
    Uri-Path "sen"

one could have:
    Well-Known-Uri-Path [CBOR-int from to be created .well-known Registry column]
    Uri-Path "sen"

Takes some coordination to get it deployed, but in some greenfields we could
do this now.
