Okay, I stand very slightly corrected: a Python server using thestandard library can accept a self-signed client certificate *if* thatcertificate (not just its fingerprint but the entire thing) iswhitelisted in advance of the connection. But this is insufficient foralmost all the applications we've discussed. It's of no use for thetransient client certificate paradigm, in particular.
