No question or issue, just a quick note.

On Apachelounge Mario Brandt (aka James Bond) once asked the question:
"Is there any chance to have a 256 cipher instead of
ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256?"

It turns out, that there is a 256-bits cipher which will be used by Chrome
for HTTP/2 connections: ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305

given that AES is hardware accelerated (on client and server) these days and there is no compelling reason to prefer 256 bit because you would need a RSA-16000 (at least for AES256, not sure for CHACHA) while for AES128 RSA-3072 key.....
