Follow-on issue from #1465.  The existing text (restored but not changed by the PR) defines the CID selected during the handshake to be Sequence -1, and the CIDs issued via NCID frame to begin at zero.

@nibanks objects to having negative sequence numbers.  We could, of course, make the handshake-negotiated CID be number zero, but then NCID with a sequence of zero would either be invalid or pointless.

Arguments for/against, or alternative solutions?
