Draft-21 says this about the ticket nonce:

          opaque ticket_nonce<1..255>;
...
   ticket_nonce  A unique per-ticket value.


Within what context is "uniqueness" required? I am assuming that
uniqueness within the context of a single TLS connection is all that
is needed?

The nonce can be anything between 1 and 255 bytes long. There is no
guidance on a suitable length, so I am assuming I can choose anything
I like as long as the uniqueness constraint is met. OpenSSL
(currently) only ever issues a single ticket per TLS connection so is
a single 0 byte sufficient?

Thanks

Matt
