I'm not seeing a lot of value here. Remember that servers are not
required (and have never been required) to do session resumption, but
much of the overhead of doing it (having to have a database, session
ticket machinery) is associated with being willing to do session
resumption at all, so if a small fraction of clients would tell
you that they're not interested in resumption, it's not clear that
buys you much.

Are there any server operators who think this is a useful feature
and can explain why?
