To generalise Ian's observation. This greedy DATA frame would prevent onward use of frame types on a stream. Not only the core frames like HEADERS and PUSH_PROMISE but also extension frames such as ALTSVC. 

I think server push is actually ok here because a server would probably want to send promises before the response body (to a avoid a race condition).
