I support adding this endpoint, and I think it should be mandatory.

In addition to helping monitors, this endpoint would allow a TLS client
vendor (e.g. Mozilla) to aggregate all the STHs for a log and ship them
in bulk to clients so that clients can easily verify a stapled
inclusion proof without needing to make any network access.  That
should please Mozilla.
