I believe the relevant expert(s) are reading this thread already. So if
a clear need for such extension is found and a definition document
created (eg the WebSocket2 RFC / Draft) it wont take much longer than
getting that spec defiend to use it in the first place. :-)

Implementation rollout will be what it will be. Regardless of any Draft
review.

That is the more likely reason a negotiated extension is unlikely to
happen. If it is not needed at all, then it might be easier not to bother.
