Watching Roland's presentation in the Dispatch WG today prodded me to
think about this again.

As far as I can tell, RFC 3326 envisions that Reason headers can be
included in responses but doesn't specify how they are processed.  OTOH,
it seems to me that the odds are good that most proxies propagate
backward Reason headers in failure responses, so Reason would be a good
choice for carrying additional information.
