Once the server knows which algorithms the client supports it can pick one. I'm not sure what the value is of having the client include only the currently selected algorithm and trigger a renegotiation once in a while.

 I agre with your opinion that it is really the server side that really 
cares what algorithm it uses, so I think this is better.

 If client doesn't benefit from certain algorithm being selected, I agree.
