Can Retry or VNego be compound with other packets? #1292

An issue that does not affect the design of the protocol; does not require consensus.
The spec now says that "A sender can coalesce multiple QUIC packets (typically a Cryptographic Handshake packet and a Protected packet) into one UDP datagram." Should that be qualified?
For example, does it make sense to compound a Version Negotiation packet with any other packet? Of course, there is no length field in VNego, but one might imagine combining a handshake packet and a VNego packet, maybe as away to send an ACK for the client init. My feeling is "don't do that". Should it be said?
The same goes for the stateless retry packet. Does it make sense to combine it with a handshake packet?
