To me, the (ordered) list of client supported versions in a single extension feels more intuitively natural, so I want to try harder to understand the reasoning that leads you to prefer a separate extension for each version. Is it just that doing an additional "negotiation" within the extension body constitutes another extension point that we would have to actively defend, or is there something else about what a TLS extension is philosophically supposed to indicate? Thanks, Ben
