Is there appetite to do this work? If we restrict this to two paths, one of which is spending years designing and implementing a new multi-party security protocol, the other of which is silently and undetectably (at least on private networks) modifying the standardized protocol for which lots of well-tested code already exists... my money is on the latter happening. In every decision we make with respect to the static DH approach, we have to keep in mind that this change can be implemented unilaterally, i.e., without any modifications for interop. Consequently, I think the work we really need to do is to design and implement a FS-breakage detector so we can at least tell when this is happening on the public internet. Beyond that, the best we can really do is ask implementors to be polite and intentionally make their implementations not interoperate silently with TLS 1.3. Kyle
