Thanks for the answer. I should have read more carefully the rfc.
Now the concern I have is related with the real world interoperability
state with existing servers that might simply close the connection if
they don't understand or properly handle client TLS extensions. This
is a good reason to allow the user to enable or disable at will client
TLS extensions.
Any chart or info available somewhere ?
Does OpenSSL retry a connection with TLS extensions disabled if a
connection attempt with extensions enabled is remotely closed before
handshake is completed ?
