- details of the relationship between each flag and protocol, e.g. whether we should mandate to invoke the protocol or we can just regard the flag as a hint and let the host decide if it invokes the protocol (as Christian suggested), etc.

It says "should" in 2462, not MUST? You want "may"?

Essentially, yes, I'd like to see a "MAY" instead of a "should". - Alain.
