At minimum, it's almost certainly getting cut from the TLS 1.3 specification 
document. It's obsolete, even by DSS standards, and either needs significant 
updating (e.g. use SHA-2) or dropping. The question will likely be whether it 
should be considered no longer acceptable or something which is permitted, just 
rarely supported and described in another document. I'd rather just declare it 
obsolete and no longer permitted to avoid the attack surface and complexity, 
and I get an impression that this is a common opinion in the WG.
