New submission from bli2020 :
Issue31997 I know this issue was previously closed
https://bugs.python.org/issue31997 because "it works as expected and should be
handled in the application layer". But, could the team add a flag in SSLContext
which will handle the trailing dot hostname appropriately (for the hostname
check, since openssl does not support trailing dots in the hostname).
Previously in 2.7 and 3.6/before I was able to override ssl.match_hostname to
add some extra checks, but now I am unable to do so because openssl is used
instead. This extra flag/implementation would help solve this problem.
