This raises the question whether the option tag is needed at all. What harm would be done by removing the option tag?
________________________________________

To some extent we're constrained by compatibility with RFC 4244.  Even if we wanted to eliminate histinfo, UACs would still need to include "Supported: histinfo" to cause 4244-but-not-4244bis proxies to do H-I processing.
