Nikos, I have updated the manual now to describe what I believe the
behaviour should be -- could you check that it matches your
interpretation?

Note that I'm not sure how %INITIAL_SAFE_RENEGOTIATION fits into this
picture.

I also suspect we want a priority string (e.g. %PARTIAL_RENEGOTIATION)
to describe today's default behaviour of permitting initial handshakes
but not rehandshakes -- so that clients/servers can use it and be
forward-compatible even when/if we change the default to make
clients/servers refuse initial handshakes without the extension.

Once we agree on how the manual should look like, I'll write self tests
for the various variants (there seems to be many different variants to
consider!), so we make sure that the code actually does what we think it
should.
