Allowing 2040 flags seems a bit mad and a possible
foot-gun - with a specification required rule that
could end up worse than the ciphersuites registry!

Given it's possible to define a tls_flags2 extension
if this one runs out, I'd argue to constrain this to a
much smaller number of flags - 63 should be plenty
I'd say.

That said, it's not that huge a deal since I have
a hard time seeing implementers even trying to code
for 2040 flags and specification required is the
same rule as for extensions.

Cheers,
S.
