Personally, I like the look of this approach; it's very closely 
analogous to how the tunneled mechanisms work.

It might also be a good place to conditionally permit/deny TLS session 
resumption, which at the moment is a bit tricky.

I'm not sure whether it makes sense to do cert validation / OSCP in an 
"inner" tunnel; I suspect that would be quite hard, and require a much 
larger patch. But I don't use either feature, so will withhold judgement.
