Thinking about this, another solution would be to continue to send a *blocked frame, while in the blocked state. Even if the peer acknowledged the first blocked frame, if you're still blocked, you send it again. Personally, for my implementation, this would be the easiest thing to implement.

I don't think the spec should make any requirements in this area, but I do think it should call this problem out and possibly make a recommendation.
