I have heard people call HTML many things, but I have not heard it 
called a protocol.  I don't think the presence of a header is close to 
sufficient for declaring something a protocol.

The absence of headers may be a better sign that something is NOT a 
protocol, but I can imagine a protocol without headers so long as 
efficiency isn't a primary goal.

Thanks,
