Reviewer comments:
This change also reserves short profile IDs for "well-known" use. Fixes URL
Can we please try to resolve this question soon to unblock implementation?
NAME NAME Any objection to merging this?
The template says it's an integer (in what range?), but the ClientHello says it's 0-255 bytes. I think it's probably easiest to say it's a string of 0-255 bytes, with the empty string reserved to mean "no template". I guess if you want to get fancy you could reserve all 1-4 byte strings.
Agreed. If you want to send a PR, I wouldn't object.
This LGTM.

Revised text:
The following elements are defined:  <ins> identifies the profile being defined (default: "").  If present, this key MUST contain a hex-encoded sequence of 0-255 bytes (the "profile ID").  IDs whose decoded length is 4 bytes or less are reserved (see reserved-profiles).  When a reserved value is used (including the default value), other keys MUST NOT appear in the template, and a client MUST NOT accept the template unless it recognizes the ID. </ins> indicates that both sides agree to the single TLS version specified by the given integer value (772 == 0x0304 for TLS 1.3). value to distinguish cTLS plaintext records from encrypted records, TLS/DTLS records, and other protocols using the same 5-tuple.

The encryption process and additional The cTLS ClientHello is defined as follows.  <ins> The "profile_id" field MUST identify the profile that is in use.
