In the context of connection migration I just sent a mail to the QUIC WG list suggesting to avoid gaps such that the packer numbers cannot effectively be exhausted. One option is to encode/encrypt packet numbers, the other was to reset packet numbers during migration. Encoding would deal with ossification issues. Randomizing early would work against keeping the packet number space large, though not as much as for migrations since it is a one off.
