I think that's pretty much it. The easiest thing is to change the docs,
but it'd be good to get some feedback from someone who cares more.
I'm copying the list for feedback.
Topic:
The binary protocol documentation has a different magic for request and
response messages, but the implementations do not.
Does anyone care about having different values here?
Just update the docs? Doesn't seem to make a huge difference to me.
Also, while you're in there, the new order for the get/etc headers was
changed in the pictures, but not in the description above them :)
Also! The reason why the CAS value was at the end is so we could easily
omit it from the get by shortening the header (without adding a bunch of
test conditionals). Is there an easy way for us to flip it back the
other way, or do we drop support for dropping that 8 bytes? :)
