Oh I completely forgot about it when it was shared a long time ago! Thanks
for the reminder (probably they already know about it and will have a great
laugh at me).

That's indeed something we should consider once we have something that
looks more robust. For now it's still limited to being used by haproxy

Definitely! Such interop tests are crucial for any protocol and are very
hard to perform by each individual project's developers.
