However, it would require that the server sends some sort of confirmation upon completing negotiation, so that the client knows whether its option has been accepted or ignored. Currently the server doesn't do that. I guess we can add a flag for that.
I guess it could echo the options it understood back (which would be useful as it would allow the server to pass the client options too - currently these are limited to flags). However, that would require a change to how the existing one option is handled. Another possibility would be to set (e.g.) the top bit of the option number to mean "error if you don't understand this", which would be rather less fine-grained. -- Alex Bligh
