Yes, the future looks good. But it is still in the future. It's coming in OpenSSL in the near future, so we'll plan on supporting it in Virtualmin when that fateful day arrives. gnutls is pretty new (relatively speaking), and I'm hesitant to grab onto new-fangled security software. ;-)
But, if the OpenSSL guys drag their feet, we might have to consider gnutls, as it is a really nice feature.

My biggest concern is that this will NOT work with older browsers. Oh well nothing lasts forever right? :D
The guy who wrote the tutorial said that SNI would come to OpenSSL already with the next release 0.99 so lets just hope these guys speed up development. :D ;)
