If we actually have a volunteer for sni-bis, then that would be OK with me.

However, I don't regard the errors as important.  Any hope that they
might be used in some automated fashion died a long time ago.  Mainly
due to this complete lack of consistency.  I assume that the last
error indicates that you didn't get an alert, which I find is
alarmingly common in TLS.
