Mirja Kühlewind points out that multiple ACK frames per packet don't really make sense, and they aren't retransmittable.  Instead, Mirja suggests replacing the ACK frame with an optional region in the packet header and a bit indicating its presence.  STOP_WAITING, already a candidate for removal (#66), could be consolidated here as well.
