A number of things I found confusing when (finally) implementing Transport Parameters (7.4 of the transport draft)

Figure 6 indicates that the opaque value varies over the range of a 16-bit integer, but the values are 0, 8, 16, or 32 bits depending on the parameter.
Given that the length of the value is type-dependent, I'm not sure how an endpoint can "ignore transport parameters that it does not support" (Sec 7.4.3). How would I skip it if I don't know how long it is?

I've read the TLS presentation language and realize that the format resolves these issues.
