ASN1_OPTIONAL is better. It's a language thing, not encoding.
As I suspected (I thought I'd remembered OPTIONAL being a keyword in ASN.1, and suspected that's what it referred to).
I've checked in a change to rename NOT_OPTIONAL and OPTIONAL to ASN1_{NOT_OPTIONAL,OPTIONAL}.
Should NO_EXTENSIONS, EXTENSION_ROOT, and NOT_EXTENSION_ROOT be prefixed with ASN1_ or PER_?
