The labels seem a bit long, considering that HTTP/2.0 has gotten slimmed down to h2.

It seems worth mentioning in the security considerations the reason why this spec was developed, namely so that proxies intending to handle one type of TLS traffic (HTTPS) could get out of the way or shut down STUN/TLS flows that could cause bad consequences.

Amanda has confirmed that the IANA Designated Expert says this draft is good to go. I was holding a Discuss for IANA, and I'm now clearing.

Section 2 is entirely unnecessary.  I suggest adding the two citations to Section 3, and then removing Section 2.

Simon, thanks for the most excellent shepherd writeup... short, and with exactly the right detail.

...and move to Informational.

I saw a comment at one stage in the discussion of this to the
effect that TLS1.3 is aiming to hide the ALPN labels which
are in clear in TLS1.2. I wasn't sure if that was considered
problematic or not for folks interested in this spec. Do we
now know? And might that be worth a mention somewhere as it
could cause developers problems if they do assume that ALPN
labels will be in clear for all time. (And there would I
think be a reason for this spec to include that - I think the
readership of this one is maybe likely to be less familiar
with TLS internals, compared to e.g. HTTP devs. (But I could
easily be wrong there.)
