Tag 82?  Nope.  Want to use that one soon enough though.  ~evil grin~

OK, good.  I didn't miss something.

Can you tell me which ones?  I suspect I am about to get into a pissing
contest with a relay agent vendor about who is doing what wrong or right,
and some ammo on my side would help.  Because of this issue with "some
popular clients", if the relay agent wants to see an option it will need to
prune the response out of the ACK then, or we risk blowing up some clients,
right?

Not really optimal either.

Yeah, that looks pretty good.  But is not what you are talking about for
the next snapshot, right?
