John: OK, thanks.

Note that one small advantage of having the one tag is that it
makes it easy to handle multipart bodies since the MIME type
plus boundary parameter is saved in the CLF record.  With an enumerated
tag set, we'd need to reserve a special tag for multipart and
somehow save the boundary parameter in the CLF record.

If you can think of a reason why going with one tag may prove
problematic, please let me know.  As far as I can see it, I think
it should work.

Thanks,
