Thanks for writing up a concrete proposal. It looks reasonable.
I'm concerned we don't understand HTTP APIs and HTTP 2 well enough. I
don't think we have any people on this list who have made non-trivial
use of asynchronous HTTP for real (I hope I'm wrong). The present
confusion with keyword arguments or lack thereof around SRFI and
R7RS-large in general adds to the mix.
