I think the decoder needs to be able to declare some maximum value for the number of blocking references it will queue, rather than a boolean on/off.  Unbounded queues are bad.  True having Depends up front allows the decoder to leave the bulk of the compressed block in the transport, but the doing so could end up consuming a large amount of flow control space and memory in that case -- it should still have a limit.

The spec should also recommend that an implementation set a maximum amount of time it will queue before closing the connection.
