> I think I have found at least one issue: when the client intentionally migrates to a new path while still having unacknowledged handshake data, how does it choose the new client CID when sending the Handshake packet? Current design assumes that the server to pick the client CID from the pool of the CIDs it has received with the NEW_CONNECTION_ID frames. That works for 1-RTT packets, because 1-RTT packet does not have the Source CID field. But when using the long header packets, the sender choose the Source CID (the source being the client in this particular case). What is the solution here?

Why not simply prohibit migration until all handshake packets have been ACKed. There is no ambiguity here, as the server is forbidden from initiating migration.
