Hi, Rainer,

A new implementation could rely on byte-counting only and then delete LF
from the frame(appplication knows exactly where the LF is), it may not force
us to use escapes. For LF, I think it is difficult to get 100% compatibility
for a legacy implementation to comply TLS-transport without any change to
the code. At least, some imlementation may need to change CR LF to LF
because some implementations use CR LF rather than LF. So, it may be ok to
add several LOC to delete FRAME-LEN SP from the frame. 

I still prefer byte-counting only to byte-counting+LF even if it is a
feasible tradeoff.
