Plain-Text Body

We've already been over this ground and I don't see any need to revisit the size of the subgroup ID field. It would be nice to have a specification for how to rationalize the priority of mixed subgroup and datagram groups that's not "implementation defined", but we're talking about the third tiebreaker, so I'm inclined to leave it alone.

Group IDs and Object IDs are varints and are also part of the priority scheme, so "we only have 1 byte for prioritization" is already the wrong place to start from. There's one byte controlled by the subscriber and that's fine.

Thanks
