No, we do not assume that.
If NPN is not supported by the client, we will default to http/1.1.
Otherwise, we will try to negotiate with the client the next protocol.

Flawed user agents will work as before: on the server we will notice
that NPN is not supported, and we default to http/1.1.

Note that Chromium and Firefox will support SPDY and hence NPN, so
that's 50% of user agents already :)
