Agreed. However, on certificates front, we need a method to perform
backward-compatible algorithm transition. Because non-backward-
compatible ones are just too hard. As we have seen _twice_.

On TLS handshake hashes, the transitions are already backward-
compatible. But that does not mean the transition will be easy.
