That protocol is somewhat more complicated.  And it's different than
the v2 protocol for the other transports (unless you are thinking that
we should change those too?).  It's actually a tiny bit like what I
originally proposed for HTTP. 

It sounds OK to me, but I want to know what others think before I start
implementing.
