John, I'm just going to cherry pick your words to respond to... because I don't particularly disagree with most of what you say... but...

But I don't think we can generally do that. If the extension changes the data in anyway (add's headers, compresses it, encodes it etc.) then the intermediary is probably going to fail in it's attempt to scan the data. Also if a text frame is being sent, but a compression extension is applied, then the contents of the frame would not even be text. Should the opcode be changed to binary to reflect the content, or left at text to reflect that it is destined for the text API? I think if an intermediary does not understand an extension, then it must ignore all data in an extended frame, so there is no harm sending it as a extension-data op-coded frame. > If > instead a MUX opcode was added and buried inside the MUX payload as a new > frame type, the intermediary would have to understand the MUX extension in > order to do anything useful with the message. It could still forward the message along the connection. I think that an intermediary that is doing anything with muxed data has to be MUX aware otherwise it will risk contaminating one channel with state obtained from another. > In particular, I would think that per-frame extension data would be a good > fit for multiplexing, as you would want to be able to attach a channel id to > each frame. An extension-data op-code would allow a channel id to be associated with every extension-data frame, so messages would just have to be sent using that frame type. I'm not sure that is a bad restriction given that I think intermediaries that do not understand MUX should do nothing with the data other than forward it. cheers
