Of course I have. I think that putting a warning in the TLS 1.3 spec as Christian suggested will mean that the code won't appear in places where there isn't a strong use case for it. It may well appear in places where there is a strong use case, but anything open source is going to face a stiff headwind in terms of implementing this, and that's what I'm suggesting we encourage. If it doesn't show up in openssl, gnutls or boringssl, it's a much smaller problem. We can't actually stop it happening—I'm just arguing for not making it convenient.
