Sorry, I misunderstood.

This is varint, correct? http://learnmeabitcoin.com/glossary/varint

If so, I think this is good idea.
It seems we do not have varint currently in Lightning (at least the parts I am 
familiar with).
I suppose the t-l-v being in a different BOLT would let us make some section or 
part for describing `varint`.
