Right, but TLS doesn't guarantee you're talking to the right server
(unless you do certificate verification, and we don't AFAIK); it only
guarantees the channel is encrypted; I believe with the current setup
Maybe this isn't a practical concern, since I don't think many other
people care.  It occurs to me that I should set SASL_SEC_NOPLAINTEXT
when TLS is not in use.
