It may make some conforming clients break but does not create a
security problem.

Some client implementers may choose to introduce an extra round trip
(which is what setting the mutual required flag does) in order to
interoperate with OpenSsh if the code is released in the current
state.

Really, that's probably OK if it happens.

I'd class this as a minor conformance issue, but not a huge deal.
