"Not be troubled by” == “drop”? I don’t agree that a well-implemented host and application should blindly accept any and all extension headers. If my application cannot use those extension headers why do you send them to me? If they are purely for the use in the network, then again why do you expose them to the application? If you can give some practical examples where it’s beneficial to “process” unknown extension headers by hosts/applications, then this may be a little easier to reason over.
