Ok may be my own cipher algorith contains holes in security, but as u know
when people listen the word "open source" there are a little bit afraid
about the security issues. But if the SSL allows the developper to include
his own cipher algorithm this can be a good argument.
P.S: sorry if my english is bad :)))

Why would you want your own cipher?
What is wrong with existing ciphers?
They have been carefully designed and reviewed (as far as we can trust the
crypto community) where your own cipher might contain security holes. Don't
you think?
