The new API to query whether the extension is negotiated or not is also needed, but that shouldn't cause any problems as far as I can see. A binary using the new API wouldn't work with the original gnutls in stable, though, but I think that is an acceptable price?
Even if you didn't add the new API, the protocol-level functionality would be improved.
So even if the decision to introduce a new API on an old interface represents a trade-off of risk vs functionality, it is not an argument against adding protocol support for RFC 5746 (which does not suggest the new API is needed for its implementation).
