This change puts placeholders in the same camp as MAX_HEADER_LIST_SIZE, an advisory value. I also agree with your argument there, a limit that is ignored is kinda useless. 

What this change does allow is a fire and forget approach from the client. It gracefully fails because the client can't reliably validate that any prioritisationinformation was adhered to.
