The most important thing I think is the abstraction WS provides to app
developers. Right now the abstraction is simple -- one message after
another. The simplicity is a good thing, if it is compromised I don't
know what websocket is supposed to be any more. Let's just kill
fragments and don't even think about any advanced features that depend
on it. Every message stays in one frame, even ones with unknown
lengths.
