Lets maybe finalize next tuesday during our meeting.

In general i think that whenever a TLS initiator did learn the TLS responder 
through a URL
with a domain name, then it needs to insert the domain name as the SNI 
"server_name".

If thats not an unwritten rule, then i'd like to understand why not.

If this is the right fundamental rule, then lets figure out how to make sure we 
put the
right instances of this into the right places, like the errata and e.g.: 
brski-cloud
