Rubber-Stamping the fallback-scsv hack onto the standards track is IMHO a very bad idea.
I apologize if this has been discussed before (I have about 1400 unread TLS mailing list messages in my queue), but it seems that a simpler SCSV or extension could just ask the server to echo its highest supported version: ClientHello w/SCSV -----> <----- ServerHello w/version extension Servers wouldn't have to change any logic or close the connection, the client would make that call.
