Um, now we've dropped the generics that's so, I think. So forget that
comment.

BTW, wouldn't the argument to 283 be better named as something else, since
it's not a challenge. In fact, all of "initial-response",
"base64-final-server-challenge-data", and "base64-server-challenge-data"
would better just be called "SASL-transaction-data". Oh, and if you
disagree with that then the latter two need adding to the "Parameters"
list.
