Sec 1.3. Opening Handshake

   Headers in the handshake are sent by the client in a random order;
   the order is not meaningful.

Saying "random order" here is misleading; it implies that the client
must shuffle the headers (I understand old versions of the protocol
required this.)  If the order is not meaningful, then it is perfectly
fine for an implementation to always send them in the same order.

I think the wording from RFC 2616 (HTTP/1.1) is clearer:

   The order in which header fields with differing field names are
   received is not significant.
