Is this likely to be how people implement truncation ? I'm more inclined to believe that truncation will happen when the incoming message is too big for a buffer, so you start reading in data (and dropping it) until you reach the end of the buffer. The above requirement forces everyone to accept all maximum length messages before deciding one is too big. > I also think, in general it is useful to put more important data first, Agreed.
