That's leftover from binary type data transfer which is not part of this
initial approach as it adds a lot of complications to both protocol and
apply side. So yes can do without.

FWIW, I don't think we can leave this out of the initial protocol
design. We don't have to implement it, but it has to be part of the
design.


I don't think it's a good idea to have unimplemented parts of protocol, we have protocol version so it can be added in v2 when we have code that is able to handle it.
