I'll wait for Ralph to signal that the document is ready, but here are
my comments.

Main item is that it has a normative reference to

so these two document should go together.

Some minor wording nits (these can be dealt with later):

Is the option allowed to be included in client messages? I would
assume so. Indeed, isn't it the case that clients can include any
option if to signal a desire to the server to get such an option
returned? If so, I guess this isn't really an issue.
