Hi Tim,

I think one user wanted to get SSL certificate authentication going but
my SSL knowledge was too weak at the time[1] and I think we both forgot
about it or lost interest.

[1] and probably still so, though I have recently managed to set
    *something* up with SSL client certs and maybe it's done
    right.  SSL is just one of those things that never really
    "clicked" for me (ssh on the other hand...)
