The current API of this server has been designed keeping in mind only minimal use cases. To be able to use this API or provide an SPI in the context of a full featured HTTP server (where the HTTP protocol itself has more than one protocol version), it would very likely require additional changes or enhancements. The proposed text here is to make it clear that it is not a goal of the jdk.httpserver to provide that level of API or SPI support.
