And I do not think the length of flags field can be 0 (if it would be, one could just omit the extension). 2) I think the bit order within octets should be reversed That is, pack flags so that 0 is LSB of first octet, 7 is MSB of first octet, 8 is LSB of second octet and so on. Then one can read status flags by index with code like: fn read_flag(flags: &[u8], idx: usize) -> bool { *flags.get(idx/8).unwrap_or(&0) >> idx%8 & 1 != 0 } (That code will also happily handle out-of-array flags by reading them as false.) -Ilari
