  *   I actually have the opposite inclination to you here -- if a field is not used by the protocol, then it should be forbidden, in the spirit of [1].  By that logic, we should also forbid the use of the "nonce" field in roll-over.  I think it was just an oversight that we didn't.  The security analysis that Bhargavan et al. did long ago did not presume any use of it.   I've made a PR making it a MUST NOT:
