What's the motivation for asking for a delegation _and_ an open stateid?
That means you have to return 2 objects instead of just one.

The WANT_OPEN_XOR_DELEGATION  option authorises the server to return a
delegation without the open stateid, which cuts down on the amount of
traffic between the client and server. Yes, you could just ask for a
delegation using WANT_DELEGATION, but if the server is unable to hand one
out, it will return an error, and you're back to sending an OPEN..

Cheers
