I have not checked the mechanism, but I have few questions based on the
description in the introduction.
   "Post-handshake authentication is defined in TLS 1.3, but it has the
   disadvantage of requiring additional state to be stored in the TLS
   state machine and it composes poorly with multiplexed connection
   protocols like HTTP/2.  It is also only available for client
   authentication.  This mechanism is intended to be used as part of a
   replacement for post-handshake authentication in applications."

* Was this proposed to be included in TLS 1.3 as post-handshake
authentication mechanism instead?

* What are the actual problems that post-handshake authentication has
with HTTP/2?

Nikos
