Well, keep in mind that "recovery" for PING, which is the way you would approach this if you never had anything to send, depends on you generating a new PING with every transmission.  So it's not that terrible.

For our implementation, we would simply crank the lever and spit out another packet when the PTO fires, which would produce a packet that coalesced the missing Handshake with a 1-RTT packet.

It only gets hairy when the lost Handshake packet overflows the MTU.  Which, sadly, is possible.  If we lost more than a PMTU, it gets a little hairy, because we will probably won't send any 1-RTT packets ever.  I might be willing to let the connection time out in that case though.
