Hi Igor,

I think I'm a little confused.  Some questions in-line.

I'm not sure what the re-ordering issue is.  Sending a Stateless Reset and
then sending more traffic on that connection seems odd.  Similarly, if the
client needs to know whether data already sent has been received, it seems
like it either has to wait until that data is acknowledged and/or use a
graceful shutdown.  I don't seen how a reset matches this--what am I
missing?

I agree that this is not very lovable.
