I tried this, and though it does work, it is incapable of providing the
Xavante server with the actual IP address of the client (unless you have
an extra computer to spare, and dedicate to running stunnel).

This solution will indeed function, and with my multiple server port
listening bugfix, it even allows you to know when you're feeding web
pages to a secured client, but it isn't quite complete.

So I guess my next question is:

Is anybody currently adding SSL support to the Kepler Project's sockets
implementation (or whichever system Kepler uses), and if so, is there an
ETA?  If not, I'm thinking I'll have a go at getting luaSSL converted
over to, and integrated with luaSocket... but it'll be a while, cause
it's not too terribly important to me at the moment.
