Lightbulb Apache+OpenSSL currently supports SNI

OpenSSL added support for SNI in version 0.9.8f (at first an optional feature, then it was enabled by default in 0.9.8k). Apache added support for SNI in 2.2.12: wiki.apache.org/httpd/NameBasedSSLVHostsWithSNI
(I would make this a hyperlink, but the board won't let me because my post count is low? )

SNI (RFC 4366) can be used as an extension to TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1; the software just has to support the extension (as you said, all modern browsers do, as well as Apache/OpenSSL). SNI is also rolled into TLS 1.2 (RFC 5246) as you mentioned.

My web host uses LiteSpeed, and I would tremendously benefit from having SNI support. Please consider adding it!
