I intend to work on both of the above for GnuTLS and would like to see
RFCs for these.  I hope people will deploy these extensions even if IETF
block RFC publication, but getting RFCs published helps and some may
have processes in place that would need to be changed to allow use of
this if there is no RFC available.
