Yes this is better. But is it actually needed to force contexts have some safe default? If context wants it may define such default without this requirement.. So, should it be requirement at all?
I've changed this to:

     descriptor with *length* matching the requested length, rather than
     reporting the error; in this case the context MAY mandate the
     status returned.



Hmm, I don't understand. So, it MAY mandate and therefore MAY NOT do it? And what client should think, if server replies with one chunk matching the request length and not mandate the status?
