While I agree adding this would be beneficial, it's the least problematic bit about the spec!
It certainly would be good if the original authors could add more about it. One thing that confused me lots is the "Auxiliary data", which changes format depending on the thing being indexed. (IIRC it's tabix data for VCF and some BAI-related format for BCF). I assume it's meant to be generic, but it also makes it largely unparseable without custom knowledge.
Ping @lh3 @pd3: is there any more information on CSI somewhere else? It looks like it arrived with this commit and subsequent commits. This appears to be where the original minimal spec documentation came from too.

See also #70, a long-standing issue noting this:
It is clear from examination of .csi files that they are stored as BGZF (why?), although this is not mentioned and is at odds with the current behaviour of BAI.
