IMO, this is also an issue with TCP applications using _peek_ to see if a complete set of data is available in the receive buffer. The reason that it has not been considered as an issue is because TCP has expected applications to read data as they arrive, rather than using peek.

Considering that, could we recommend the same approach in the transport draft? Does doing so have a severe impact on HQ?
