I found this in RFC 3984:

       sprop-parameter-sets:
                        This parameter MAY be used to convey
                        any sequence and picture parameter set NAL
                        units (herein referred to as the initial
                        parameter set NAL units) that MUST precede any
                        other NAL units in decoding order.  The
                        parameter MUST NOT be used to indicate codec
                        capability in any capability exchange
                        procedure.

The way I interpret this, only SPS and PPS are allowed. Am I getting this 
right?
