Honestly I don't know. HTTPS gives you a certificate model on the server
side as well. (e.g. use server name in subjectAltName or in CN)

I would say that the basic model is mandated by the protocol, with
overrides in the operator's hand (e.g. the "Yes, I want to continue"
button in the browser, in the case of HTTPS).
