All I am suggesting is that the number of retries is not something the
consumer can or should be specifying. Whatever the appropriate
number is, is something for the transport to choose. It's an
internal detail.

Okay, though I would suggest it should. In any case, iWARP (TCP)
does, and that's important to bear in mind.
