I have sketched an Idea how to handle verification in SqueakSSL in general (and briefly presented to Bert),
I'm not yet sure, however, and I'm on vacation the next two weeks. But after
that I'd like to spark a discussion (hoepfully including Sven, for Zodiac) that will involve:

a) no manual verification. Period.
b) fail on non-verification.
c) optional 'unverified' mode that has to be requested explicitly
d) Moving the Unix platform code to libtls (easier to understand)

That's my 2ct for now, more in September.

Best regards
	-Tobias
