I have no problem with that.  I do worry about the fact that this is
lowercase.  HTTP/1.1 self identifies as "HTTP/1.1" (i.e., uppercase),
whereas ALPN uses "http/1.1", which will cause issues (I can say
"will" rather than "might" because that was an issue we had with the
HTTP/2.0 identification string).  Is there any reason that this is not
the same string that HTTP/1.1 uses?
