So, is NASA talking about any of this? I haven't checked yet, but I would think they would have something to say... it would be very interesting if they remain close-mouthed over everything.

I suppose anythings possible. They are at an altitude of about 400000 feet or so at that point so foam is unlikely and any that does shed usually falls off much earlier in the ascent phase, most if not all foam loss occurs at, and slightly after, SRB Sep which happens about 6 minutes or so previous to the start of the video clip a little after T - plus 2:12.
