I'm having great trouble understanding your scenario. You are concerned that a browser might deploy an experimental non-standard feature that changes the framing of Web Sockets, because it is possible that large scale deployments with complex infrastructure that can't handle the new framing might want to opt in to such experiments because eventually they will want to do a real deployment of this new framing? > >> If you want to send BEEP over a HTTP connection, then you should > >> upgrade to BEEP, not websocket. > > > > If the handshake involves an optional opt-in to a non-standard > > experimental feature, and you accept it, then you're not upgrading to > > Web Socket, you're upgrading to a non-standard protocol influenced by > > Web Sockets, as defined by the convention you and the client are > > using. > > My point is that an intermediary can't possible know about all > subprotocols (experimental or otherwise), nor be expected to upgrade > everytime a new subprotocol is invented. We're not talking about subprotocols here, we're talking about Web Socket protocol extensions. A server-side intermediary only needs to know about the protocol features and options that are in use at the site. This is similar to how the server-side intermediaries need to know about the version of HTTP in use at the site. If someone deploys a new experimental compression scheme in a Web browser, deployment sites that don't opt-in to using that compression scheme need not know anything about it. > Intermediaries can know about websocket framing and so long as all sub > protocols and extensions are restricted to adhere to websocket framing, > then intermediaries can continue to work regardless of sub protocols.
