Summary:                    Only one certificate, multiple domains
Description: 
Asterisk has since a long time supported hosting of multiple SIP domains.
The TLS implementation only supports ONE certificate, meaning that we only
support TLS for ONE domain without using subject alt names, something that
is not widely implemented.

I consider this a bug in the TLS implementation. New features should
follow the existing design, not break it. For 1.8 we need to be able to
have one certificate (and one TLS socket) for each domain.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
It doesn't say we should NOT use common name, but that we should prefer SAN
URI's, then SAN domains (only if we need multiple domains).

Good thing to hear that implementations are finally coming, I've been
running tutorials about this at SIPits for years... :-)

It's impossible to buy certs with SAN SIP uri's today. It is possible, but
very expensive to get those with SAN domains. It's cheap to get certs with
CNs. So we need to support having multiple TCP ports open with separate
certs.
