  • [Discuss] should headers be ordered by the int key (ascending) or not
    • [Proposed] current proposal is to not enforce ordering as headers should be composable and should be in any order, and any optimization benefits are offset by the similar perfomance disadvantages. 
    • Benefits 
      • Allows faster access to lower numbered keys which can be reserved for server side set/accessed headers
      • Ability to skip/not read higher numbered keys used by clients.
    • Disadvantage 
      • Ability to add a header to existing array is more complex, as cannot simply append
      • Makes advanced uses such as repeated headers would be limited by ordering
