I was wondering...what about adding a "payload_size" field to the new
packet?

The handling code would probably be generic enough to handle any future
change leading to a more stable compat_version (instead of increasing its
value everyday).
What will be the purpose of the payload field ?
After discussing this on IRC we came up with not introducing this field.
Actually we don't need it so it's not worth bloating the packet format now.

Cheers!
