I am sorry I am late in the process of commenting this draft, but I have a question about the CompressedCertificate message: why does it contain an uncompressed_length field? What is the point of this field which can not be trusted? If the idea is to give a hint of how long a certificate is, we already know that. Since the whole goal of this draft is to reduce the size of the message, I would strongly suggest this field be removed. It is too much a temptation to be considered as a reliable information for shaky implementations.
