there is no strict need for thinking of the short-binary and long-alphabeti=
c commands as distinct. In v2, some short ones would be treated as aliases =
for old long-alphabetic ones. But new commands could also just be introduce=
d as short ones only (even in v1).

Oh, yes. I meant this as an encoding scheme, not as a (replacement for) the=
negotiation/coordination mechanism. There could still be an initial assign=
ment for 1-byte encodings, and/or an explicit mechanism to negotiate other =
assignment, and/or nothing at all for now.
I just thought it would be interesting to have a uniform encoding without e=
xplicit distinction between "short commands" and "long commands" at that la=
yer.
But maybe none of this is worth it, as it's perhaps more complexity than th=
e alternative, and the alternative already has a working implementation and=
written-up specification.
Cheers,
