So one proposal in above is we treat 0 tickets as "ensure I have a valid
ticket, either this one or a new one" and all other numbers are straight
asks for that many tickets.

The other proposal is N means "ensure I have N valid tickets, including the
one I used on this connection". I find both cleaner then the 0 and 255 swap.
