So you think we need that the extension is marked critical if and only if the 
strict flag is set? That wouldn't be ideal. Can you explain your thinking? 
Which case presents a problem?

Ugh, it occurs to me that to have proper processing in all cases,
including client that does not support DC and client that does and
ignores criticality of supported extensions, you need to have
critical flag and strict flag mirror each other.
