At a minimum, the VERSION bit must not change. I argue that there also has to be a MORE_FLAGS bit, and that this must also not change if the receiver can parse where the flags end.

If it is at all possible that a later version might change the length of the connection ID field (as earlier QUIC versions did), we must move the version field in front of conn ID to correctly parse the header.
