Nits...:

   The OWS (optional whitespace) rule is used where zero or more linear
   whitespace characters MAY appear:

   OWS            = *( [ obs-fold ] WSP )
                    ; "optional" whitespace
   obs-fold       = CRLF

We changed the definition of OWS nin HTTPbis: <http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-httpbis-p1-messaging-latest.html#basic.rules>

   1.  If the URI does not use a hierarchical element as a naming
       authority (see [RFC3986], Section 3.2), or if the URI is not an
       absolute URI, then generate a fresh globally unique identifier
       and return that value.

       1.  NOTE: Running this algorithm multiple times for the same URI
           can produce different values each time.  Typically, user
           agents compute the origin of, for example, an HTML document
           once and use that origin for subsequent security checks
           rather than recomputing the origin for each security check.

It seems the NOTE shouldn't be in a numbered list (same for item 4).

7.1. Syntax


   The Origin header field has the following syntax:


 origin              = "Origin:" OWS origin-list-or-null OWS
 origin-list-or-null = "null" / origin-list
 origin-list         = serialized-origin *( SP serialized-origin )
 serialized-origin   = scheme "://" host [ ":" port ]
                     ; <scheme>, <host>, <port> productions from RFC3986

a) Reformat do it doesn't need to be outdented

b) "null" in ABNF means case-insensitive; consider replacing with octet sequence and putting the literal "null" into a comment.

References: may need updates, such as WEBSOCKETS. Also consider sorting them (xml2rfc sortrefs PI).
