Visible issues? No.  But the glib-networking maintainers explicitly say the 
openssl backend is not as functional and known to be buggier than the gnutls 
backend.

If you want to use the openssl backend then you’re welcome to switch back, but 
I think the default should respect the will of the authors unless we have a 
good argument otherwise.
