I see your point Julian.

But we have to make this explicit, rather than implicit.

I.e. ``Upon receiving Reject to an offered key=value(s)
the implementation MAY close the connection or if
available, offer a different set of value(s) of the key.
The node which sent the Reject MAY choose to close the
connection when it sees fit.'' (This should probably
be added to the draft.)

This makes it clear that no further action is
required on part of the node which sent the Reject,
except the drastic action...
