Thank you for working on the changes. They look good to me.

FWIW, I realized that this is an issue we should fix by looking at the fact that we could have two interpretations of where the token-len and token fields could be located in -13. One interpretation is that it is before the payload assuming that payload is not part of the header, and the other is that it should be after the payload because payload is defined as part of the header.

It is source of confusion as you can see in #1535. While it is true that we will be moving the location of the token fields in #1498, I think this PR is worth the effort to avoid similar confusion in the future.
