@MikeBishop, since the revert was partial, the net effect of this issue was to remove the text that was forbidding DATA frames with zero length. 
https://tools.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-ietf-quic-http-17.txt

So now the RFC is in an inconsistent state, where zero-len DATA frames are allowed, but we don't know what they are. Are they just not an error but should be ignored ?
