I appreciate the gesture but... At this juncture I'd prefer to see OpenSSL access to crypto APIs remain an external library like M2Crypto, at least until the Python community is willing to do a full implementation of all OpenSSL APIs. ...and maintain it.

I suggested adding a class which gives you access to those. I think it's a good idea, and that serious use of SSL will require signing eventually. If you'd like to submit an RFE, particularly an RFE with a patch which includes a test case, that would move things along smartly.
