I think Peter's primary argument was that this doesn't belong in
\conninfo, which is about reporting the parameters required to
establish the connection. We have kind of broken that already by
cramming SSL and GSS encryption info into the results, but that
doesn't mean it should become a kitchen-sink listing of anything
anybody says they'd like to know.
Anyway, I think your point is that maybe this should be RWF
not Rejected, and I agree with that.
(I had not looked at the last version of the patch, but now that
I have, I still don't like the fact that it has the client tracking
session start time separately from what the server does. The small
discrepancy that introduces is going to confuse somebody. I see
that there's no documentation update either.)
