I agree that an appendix is the wrong place to put this.  And that specifying 
the client order is pointless.

But I disagree with this being a MUST.  There may be times when the server 
knows more than the client and will know that a lower version is more 
appropriate.  E.g., interfering middleboxes or regulatory regimes.
