Maybe I am missing something, but what do you mean by "the binary data stream which contains the opening <stream:stream>". Do you mean non-ascii? If so, isn't the opening <stream:stream> ascii?
 
The current stanza flow is shown below. There are currently three stream restarts, indicated by the <stream:stream> stanzas. I think what is proposed is just to eliminate the 'extra' <stream:stream> stanzas (2 from the server, 2 from the client).
 
Thanks
