Regarding when to stop padding Initial:

> Clients MUST pad UDP datagrams that contain only Initial packets to 1200 bytes. Once a client has received an acknowledgment for a Handshake packet it MAY send smaller datagrams. Sending padded datagrams ensures that the server is not overly constrained by the amplification restriction.

I think that client can stop padding Initial when it has CRYPTO frame to send in Handshake packet.  This is because at this time server has nothing to send and client will retransmit Handshake packet thus no dead lock.
