@gloinul 
> What I don't know if it is resolved fully is the implementation requirements is that a sender MUST be capable of handling an ACK frame with Largest Acknowledged that is smaller than highest received? From my perspective there are good and valid arguments why this may be required, however I think consensus needs to be established on that.

I am not sure if I'm following the context, but my understanding is that a sender MUST be capable of that, because we allow an endpoint to simply retransmit the payload of a packet that is being deemed lost; see #1612.
