A connection error is entirely appropriate.  The awkward compromise we have in the transport docs exists because there is at least a plausible argument in support of ignoring regressions in limits.  There, reordering and retransmission schemes might produce the situation (even if the latter might be somewhere between inadvisable and malicious).  Here, the frames appear on a strictly ordered stream with no chance that it is going to be missed.  I see no reason to treat this leniently.

The error code question I have no opinion on, other than to suggest the application of principles already articulated.
