Yes, that's my impression on the matter as well. While renaming the
client-side parameters sounds not really plausible, the server-side
parameters could be renamed with an implementation-related prefix if
another implementation than OpenSSL is used. Until that happens, any
server-side renaming does not justify the breakage in my opinion.
