Though I don't think we'll see it happen any time soon, I don't think we want to completely close the door on new hash functions.  SHA-3 might be dead, but that doesn't mean we won't eventually be motivated to move to another one.

>From memory, we see a non-trivial amount of SHA-384, though that might just be in its pairing with AES-256-GCM.  It's routinely paired with P-384, which we do get a little bit of.  We even have P-521 in quantities large enough that we can't turn it off, which is likely paired with SHA-512.
