Comment(by asn):

 Marsh pointed out that my description of the NextProto protocol above is
 not entirely accurate, since the client transfers her choice of transport
 layer protocol encrypted '''after''' the `ChangeCipherSpec`:

 {{{
 If, and only if, the server included a "next_protocol_negotiation"
 extension in its ServerHello message, the client MUST send a
 "NextProtocol" message after its "ChangeCipherSpec" and before its
 "Finished" message.
 }}}
