Inspired by a few side discussions and Yoav's new draft, I have the pleasure of announcing the first proposal to use that mechanism:

 https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-thomson-tls-sic-00

I'm sure that there are plenty of opportunities to bike shed on the flags format, but it's definitely useful in the abstract.  It make this easier.

( Read the draft for details of the idea.  It's based on the intermediate preloading work we've been doing at Mozilla: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/CryptoEngineering/Intermediate_Preloading )
