I think documenting this sort of thing would be useful.  I think it is

I would be interested in URL or RFC references.
Also, I understand you refer more to the analysis of existing normal entries?
Here I refer mainly to malignious inputs or the ill designedness of 
some protocols.

Covert channels are generally studied in the context of multi-level 
secure systems, i.e., ones with mandatory access controls that separate 
different security levels.  Google will give you many good references 
on the first page of answers.
