Would it be good to expand on that idea of criticality? IIRC one of
Jelte's complaints earlier was that middleware has to know all the
extension types anyway, to be able to figure out whether it has to do
something about them or not. HTTP has the concept of hop-by-hop vs
end-to-end headers for related reasons.
