FWIW, this is what the code will do, the small number of additional
sessions per IP (scaling with configuration complexity rather than
domain count) is manageable. This better supports absurd, but feasible,
configurations where some domains (served by a commmon server) must use
weak ciphers and other domains must use strong ciphers.

So I guess I don't have to have ABI supported access to the cipher ids,
for now...
