Servers have to deal with this anyway given that the Windows vncviewer
in both version 3 and 4 of RealVNC uses this behaviour, and almost
every VNC implementation derives from these.

Also, given the dominance of the Windows platform, I'd say the
absolute majority of all VNC sessions will already be using this
method. So us stating that it is the preferred mode is only documenting
reality as it already is.

What server was it that mishandled this sequence?
