"A receiver that is only sending ACK frames will not receive acknowledgments for
its packets.  Sending an occasional MAX_DATA or MAX_STREAM_DATA frame as data is
received will ensure that acknowledgements are generated by a peer.  Otherwise,
an endpoint MAY send a PING frame once per RTT to solicit an acknowledgment."

But this isn't true if the counterparty piggybacks ACKs in its packets that contain STREAM data (which is at least what I do!), and why I filed #1231. Is this really the behavior we want?
