It all boils down to how apps use contents of Close messages they receive. You've mentioned several use cases already. I suspect in most cases though the status code and the reason are just logged. I have several questions I would appreciate if you give answers to. It will help me to understand the issue in detail. Consider an "average" client app from your experience. 1. Are there any cases where the app needs to know that Close message was in fact empty? 2. Does the app behaviour (especially, parsing the reason phrase/description) depend on the status code? 3. If the app initiates the Closing handshake, what Close message does it send? 4. Which codes does the app distinguish? Thanks, -Pavel
