After I sent my mail, I remembered that you really objected
to multiple <create-subscription>s.

I think there was discussion wrt/ adding back the subscription-id
and this was rejected, so there was no way to tell multiple
subscriptions on the same session apart.  So the text you
cited was added to the draft.

However, a vendor could (and should) use their own RPC method
with explicit semantics, rather than hack the <create-subscription> RPC
in non-standard ways.

The new text in question should clearly refer to new sessions,
since N subscriptions per session is not supported via the
standard <create-subscription> operation.
