Just an idea that came up here in the ANIMA WG:
could there be a new CoAP Option to express a particular path like "/.well-known/foo" into a very short option e.g. 1 or 2 bytes overhead?

That could mitigate some concerns about using "/.well-known" type paths which today adds many bytes of overhead to a message which has little value because always identical for a particular application.

The receiver is of course assumed to know this option, just like it would know (guaranteed by system/solution design) the "/.well-known/foo" path otherwise.

A related idea is just an option to encode "/.well-known" in short form.

thanks for any feedback/reactions you may have ;)
