Aha. I guess this then shows my cluelessness in this topic.

I don't know. Is perhaps Gertjan van Wingerde's certificate_verify_callback
something you could use?

What patch? I was saying that I wouldn't mind getting this functionality, I
didn't refer to any specific patch as I'm not aware of any such (other than
Gertjan van Wingerde's patch mentioned above).

I use very little SSL magic myself. I need lots of help and input from users
to guide me. When I don't get that, I just leave things as they are.
