What is the intended use of the "Recommended" list? I.e. how is an implementer 
supposed to think about this marker?

Cheers,

Andrei

+1.  This seems like a reasonable way forward.

There are presently four categories of cipher suites vis-a-vis TLS 1.3.

1. MUST or SHOULD cipher suites.
2. Standards track cipher suites (or ones we are making ST, like
    the ECC ones).
3. Non standards track cipher suites
4. Cipher suites you can't use at all with TLS 1.3, like AES-CBC.

I think we're all agreed that category #1 should be marked recommended
and that #3 and #4 should not be. This leaves us with category #2, which
includes stuff like:

- FFDHE
- CCM

My proposal is that we:

- List all the Standards Track cipher suites that are compatible with TLS 1.3 
in Appendix A.
- Mark all the cipher suites that are listed in Appendix A as "Recommended"

I think the TLS 1.3 IANA considerations should just deal with setting up the 
recommended column and marking it for the cipher suites/extensions that are 
described in the 1.3 document.  Other cipher suites/extensions  can be marked 
as recommended through other documents.
