Hi all,

I'm reviewing draft-ietf-dprive-xfr-over-tls for this week's IESG telechat, and
in 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-dprive-xfr-over-tls-11#appendix-A.3
it seems to suggest that a TLS server might only choose to allow connections 
that
include a specific (secret-ish) SNI value.  Given that the "as above" listed 
"con"
seems to indicate that there are no relevant implementations of this 
functionality,
I plan to push back on its inclusion in the document; a PSK mode (with cert,
per RFC 8773) would seem to be universally superior.

Am I correct to do so?  Do we know of any cases where the SNI value is being
(ab)used as an authorization token in this manner?

Thanks,

Ben
