Section 7.2.6 says:
The GOAWAY frame is always sent on the control stream. In the server-to-client direction, it carries a QUIC stream ID for a client- initiated bidirectional stream encoded as a variable-length integer. A client MUST treat receipt of a GOAWAY frame containing a stream ID of any other type as a connection error of type H3_ID_ERROR. In the client-to-server direction, the GOAWAY frame carries a push ID encoded as a variable-length integer.
It should say:
The GOAWAY frame is always sent on the control stream. In the server-to-client direction, it carries a QUIC stream ID for a client- initiated bidirectional stream encoded as a variable-length integer. A client MUST treat receipt of a GOAWAY frame containing a stream ID of any other type as a connection error of type H3_ID_ERROR. In the client-to-server direction, the GOAWAY frame carries a push ID encoded as a variable-length integer. A server MUST treat receipt of a GOAWAY frame containing a stream ID of any other type as a connection error of type H3_ID_ERROR.
Notes:
The MUST requiring a stream error on an invalid stream ID was missing in the client-to-server direction. This is related to erratum 7780, and likely entered the spec for the same reason.
