I'm waving the flag for poor 'obs' here.

It could provide a useful hint for a HTTP user agent that needs to take some decision about how to access the resource through a HTTP-CoAP proxy (e.g. use hanging GET instead of "usual" GET).

[ See section 4.3.4.1.1.1. of the HTTP-CoAP mapping I-D -- wow, six levels of indirection.  That's deep  nesting indeed :-) ]
