I agree it should give such guidance. I believe your connect-reuse draft specifies re-using the TLS connection for upstream requests, but says nothing about a mechanism used to keep it open, right? So I was assuming this draft-keep would be orthogonal and complimentary to connect-reuse: if the proxy wants to use one of the keepalive mechanisms, it could indicate such with keep; if it wanted to allow connection reuse, it would do such with alias; and it could do both if it wanted both. One does not imply the other, does it?
