The simplest was just to leave out the random bytes after the handshake request, but to include them after the handshake response. This is compliant and will still test if intermediaries forward non-HTTP content. There is no extra RTT over the current handshake as the client already cannot send any messages until the bytes after the 101 are received > I can see how the idea of HTTP compliance should be a preference, but > I don't see how it can be a hard requirement, if it turns out that we > can make the protocol work better only by violating. When operating in a standards based environment, the assumption should be that standards are respected. If there is a reason to violate the self evident truth that messages should be HTTP on a HTTP connection, then I think those that want to violate should make the case that violation is needed. Then effort should be expended to see of the violated standard can be improved. Only then should a violation of an established standard be contemplated... and then it would have to be for a very very good reason and I'm not sure that an imperfect fast fail mechanism is such a good reason. Regardless, it should be the violators obligation to make their case. It should not be necessary for those that wish to respect and existing standard to defend the need to respect it. Unfortunately this is what is occurring because the editor has included a mechanism in the draft that did not have consensus. regards
