Re: Large Frame Proposal

I think that this proposal has some merit.  I, like Mark, am concerned
that it will get a negative reaction from people who want to ship
their existing code and are not sufficiently motivated to change.

Assuming now that the general concept is acceptable...

My one big reservation is with the addition to WINDOW_UPDATE.  I think
that it's unnecessary complexity.  The other changes you make are
well-enough supported, but this seems like feature creep to me.
Having to track a limit on each stream is more state and complexity.
And making it optional and ignorable means that you've created an
optional feature that is optional, which is a poor way to guarantee
that implementations will provide and respect it.

I think that the setting for maximum frame size needs to be just
limited to DATA.

I think that the setting for maximum header block size needs to cover
PUSH_PROMISE (we already have settings that govern PUSH_PROMISE).

Any why 16384 rather than 16383?

There are a few editorial problems with the pull request, but nothing
major.  The edit to the header block section seems to have been
rushed; the minimum values on size need to be better called out.
