Recently, I had to implement a client that supported cert based mutual
auth. I searched a bit in both Twisted and treq but didn't find an
existing implementation (maybe I missed it), so I implemented a custom
IPolicyForHTTPS. It was pretty easy, and though it needs more testing,
seems to be working well.
My question is whether this would be of interest as a PR to Twisted
itself (or a project under that umbrella)? The use case comes to mind is IoT
(though it isn't the only one), and a specific example is the AWS IoT API:
