COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Sorry one more comment/question I forgot earlier: Why is this document
informational? Shouldn't it be at least experimental?

------ previous comment ------

One comment/question: I think I didn't quite understand what a client is
supposed to do if the connection fails with use of greasing values...? The
security considerations seems to indicate that you should not try to re-connect
without use of grease but rather just fail completely...? Also should you cache
the information that greasing failed maybe?

And a note on normative language:

"Implementations sending multiple
   GREASE extensions in a single block thus must ensure the same value
   is not selected twice."
Should this be a "MUST"?

Also this is an interesting MUST:
"... MUST correctly ignore unknown values..."
While this is the whole point of the document, I assume this is already
normatively specified in RFC8446 and therefore it could make sense to use
non-formative language here...
