I agree with your arguments, my one and only concern was to avoid
upcoming bug reports about openssl.cnf refered in the docs, because it
is not seen as openssl.conf. But forget it, it seems not to be worth to
pay attention to.

This behaviour was chosen as it is the same logic as that used in the
openssl command line utility; this is advantageous as it allows
"seamless" compatibility with existing openssl installations on all
systems.

Changing it just to work around a windows explorer "feature" that is
not really a problem (you will only edit the .cnf file once or twice)
doesn't seem like enough of a good reason.

Hi,
I know the issues from mysql and their *.cnf files.
I don't know how the openssl.cnf is bundeld and my suggestion was _not_
to make PHP search for an opennsl.txt or whatever extension to openssl
config file. I was just asking, if it would be possible to rename the
shipping openssl.cnf for the reason of easier editing for windows user.
I personally have no problems with this issue, I know how to rename or
edit and set the env variables:-)

mysql also has a similar issue with it's my.cnf file, although it will
also search for my.ini in certain, not always useful, locations.

And you can btw, name it whatever you like, just set an environment
variable called "OPENSSL_CONF" with the name.

Wrong place to report this, try openssl.org instead.
