@janaiyengar: I'm not concerned about the bandwidth consumed by that byte. The reason I'm raising this is because I started implementing this, and found little guidance how to use this field.

What cases are you thinking about? I can hardly imagine a case where this field alone will help you find a problem, unless there's a decent reason phrase given (in which case it's the reason phrase that's helpful, not the frame byte).
