An even more reasonable approach would be to mandate EMS, EtM, and (and I
realise I'm biased here) LTS, which solve all of the above problems without
having to throw away a bunch of long-standing cipher suites with massive
existing deployed base.  That's a simple, backwards-compatible tweak to the
deployed base to fix existing problems rather than scrap-it-and-order-a-new-
one to replace existing problems with a new set.
