Agreed. The current UseTLS behaviour is to do what it has done since it 
was first implemented: enable TLS 1.0.

We could, for example, enable all TLS protocols when UseTLS is set and 
log a message that TLS_Protocols should be used instead for better 
control of supported versions.

Now when some TLS versions are showing their age and TLS 1.3 is 
upcoming, it's good to have a way to tell what exactly is wanted.

Yes, I'll see that this gets attention.
