I can take on this item
One question that I want to ask regarding MQTT specifically is about the UPayload encoding in the MQTT Message. So, if I understand the requirements correct, we want to serialize/encode the payload value itself instead of the entire UPayload. If that's the case, how should we carry the UPayloadFormat inside the MQTT Message? Right now in up-client-mqtt5-python, I'm serializing the entire UPayload. But, if that's not proper, I would be able to encode each payload based on its format, but would need to know the format when the message is received on the other side.

MQTT5 supports binary payload so that means we send UPayload serialized to bytes as-is (not base64 encoded or stuffed in json or anything else).
