Assume we may have reason to believe that SHA1 is within reach of well
funded adversaries, and assume it had a code-point in DANE.
Site A only publishes SHA1 entries. Would rather do unauthenticated TLS
than trust SHA1?
Site B publishes both SHA2-512 and SHA1 entries. Would you still want
to trust SHA1?
