Which value do they want?  As we have previously established in relation to the discussion on connection IDs and handshake types, there are values that would be sent in the clear in (D)TLS 1.3, which have very tight constraints, and those that would be sent under encryption, which might not need so close scrutiny.

I get the impression that there are constraints here.  This will likely be multiplexed in an RFC 7983 sense in DTLS 1.2, so the range of values here is narrow.  But not as narrow as to require access to the prime space between 20 and 31 that we are using for handshake types that need to be sent in the clear. I think that we should encourage the use of a value >= 32 in this case.
