I don't think this is something we would be interested in doing.

1) it's a pretty niche feature.
2) it would require adding a dependency on OpenSSL's libssl which we
currently do not have.
3) as you note, there are already ways to do this kind of thing via
inetd/proxycommand and/or stunnel.
4) I don't think we'd want to play whack-a-mole with the middlebox
vendors anyway.

If I was trying to do this I'd probably start with stunnel and look at
adding the feature you want to that.

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
