For simple use of TLS, all you need is to be able to filter read/write
to the socket via a plugin (it's easier if the plugin doesn't *have* to
process incoming data instantly, though, but at least openssl has a nice
buffering api which makes even this very simple - also, the plugin has to
be able to generate write data when getting passed read data).

(I think you use gnutls, no clue how gnutls handles this).
