I find the reference to
      immediately previous handshake
in s.3 unclear.

Thinking of session resumption, as identified in RFC5246, there are three cases
namely
  "The session identifier MAY be from an earlier connection,
   this connection, or from another currently active connection."

Which connection should the immediately previous handshake come from
given that there may be one session and multiple connections
(each of which may be independently re-negotiating) in each of these three
cases?

My grasp of TLS session and TLS connection may not be as crystal clear
as it might be; I see session as defined by a common session
identifier but connection being the construct whose protocol is changed by
this I-D.
