True. I see no simple way to mitigate this issue, but expect that the
client will not do a handshake when it is expecting some data from the
server.

Regarding this event, that would mean we are switching from a SSL
connection to a Clear Text connection. I can see some use cases where it
can happen.

I agree with the second flag (SSL close event), not sure we should close
the connection in this case.
