This looks fine, but I have a new concern: this makes it appear as though the congestion window doesn't apply to the server.  It does.  Would this be better?

> The amount that servers are permitted to send is also constrained by the limit set by the congestion avoidance algorithm.  Clients are only constrained in what they can send prior to address validation by congestion control.
