Dave, are you still interested to address the issue?

I think it's a good idea to replace HMAC-MD5 in the long run. But instead of 
hard-coding another hash algorithm, I would like to see an improved handshake 
protocol that supports flexible authentication algorithms. You could send an 
algorithm indicator (e.g. HMAC_SHA256) in the request.

It would be really cool to run multiprocessing protocol over TLS with support 
for SASL with SCRAM or EXTERNAL (TLS cert auth, AF_UNIX PEERCRED, GSSAPI)...
