Regarding the dummy TrustManager point, in my experience trust and hostname
verification are
separate steps (at least in Java’s implementation of SSL). Here are some tests:

public void selfSignedHostnameVerified() throws Exception {

There is a fix in progress for
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8213189
which will allow the "Host" header to be overridden, along with some of
the other currently
restricted ones.
I don't follow the other point though. With a dummy TrustManager, the

You could also isolate the behavior to a specific SSLContext (and
therefore HttpClient)
by initializing the SSLContext with a dummy TrustManager (if it's only
for testing).

Hi all,
I think it should be possible to supply a custom javax.net.ssl.HostnameVerifier
while building a
java.net.http.HttpClient. While it is possible to disable standard hostname
verification via the
system property “jdk.internal.httpclient.disableHostnameVerification”, this
doesn’t allow you
