Summary:

The document describes a new header/trailer field that HTTP intermediaries can
use to insert further details related to their handling of responses inline,
for example to assist debugging of complex HTTP delivery topologies.  The
described mechanism addresses the problem in a simple, elegant and extensible
way.  The document is well written and the instructions to IANA are clear and
actionable.

Major issues: none

Minor issues: none

Nits/editorial comments:
Is it "https://iana.org/assignments/http-proxy-statuses (plural) or
https://iana.org/assignments/http-proxy-status (singular)?  Or are these two
different things -- in which case I am not sure what the difference would be?
