I think the two methods (use-once session database and strike register)
should additionally be formulated so that those have sufficient
atomicity to eliminate 0-RTT replay.

This of course impiles that the scope of 0-RTT is sufficiently small
for synchronization to propagate quickly enough (this probably limits
the scope to a datacenter, but this should not be a problem in
practice).

Then clients should also be restricted to using the same ticket just
once for 0-RTT (absent a application profile), with due atomicity.

Also, I think use of 0-RTT exporters should require atomic session
database or strike register, no matter what application profile says,
as otherwise 0-RTT exporters become insecure.


Obviously, these 0-RTT safeguards don't need to apply to 1-RTT using a
dynamic PSK. That can be reused (obiviously at cost of linkability).


Also, a trick: The first binder makes a good identifier for the
ClientHello for purposes of 0-RTT replay detection.
