One purely implementation option:  It's always legitimate to repeat a frame.  Therefore, if you track _only_ the smallest and largest un-acked RCID sequence numbers, you can just keep retiring the whole range every time you retransmit. ACKs will shrink the range (hopefully to zero).  There's no harm beyond unnecessary bytes in retransmitting something a few extra times to avoid excessive state tracking.
