Is there even a requirement zo have Z-offset be in the avatar appearance
message? To me it looks more like that hip-offset would be better suited
to be in some animation parameter, which makes it incompatible with
older viewers, but a SSB-enabled simulator might translate that
animation parameter into an avatar appearance message for viewers not
supporting that idea of animation parameter.

SSB does all appearance generation as a centralized service -
meaning your avatar's visual parameters, height, and baked textures
are served without needing the viewer to have downloaded and decoded
the wearables. That's why I'm starting to refer to it as server side
appearance, not server side baking. Height is determined when you
calculate your agent's appearance message which is now generated on
the back end.
Adding new wearable parameters is not without precedent - we've
done it before when we added alpha masks, tattoos, avatar physics,
etc. The only change should be a new parameter (id=11001) in the
shape's parameter block. This does not represent a major revision to
the wearable or avatar format.
