I have submitted a draft requesting a standard format for IPv6

I think I don't understand why one would need new extension headers,
instead of adding options to the existing ones (plus depleting the IP
protocols number might not be such a godd idea). But I guess I'm missing
something.
Well, we have the ability today to standardize new extension headers,
if the case is strong enough. This draft only seems to be proposing
some additional constraints on such extensions.
