#152 closed design (duplicate)

range unit missing from other-ranges-specifier in Range header (dup)

Description

In ​http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-httpbis-p5-range-06.html#rfc.section.5.4.2, we have: 

  Range   = "Range" ":" OWS Range-v
  Range-v = byte-ranges-specifier
          / other-ranges-specifier
  other-ranges-specifier = 1*CHAR

Shouldn't other-ranges-specifier be something like: 

  other-ranges-specifier = other-range-unit "=" 1*CHAR

...so that a recipient can parse the unit name out of the header in a generic way?
