Smart HTTP does not need it: you already posted a better solution (I'm
refering to "&v=2").

At least the server side does not seem to be that complex. See below.
Of course, the server blasted out some refs, but I'm confident that in
practice the client will be able to signal v2 capability after a few packets
of advertisements. You can switch on TCP_NODELAY for the first line with
the capabilities to ensure it goes out on the wire ASAP.
