Steps to reproduce:

Please make it trivial to create a TLS connection, so that it is easier to do the right thing than the wrong thing.

E.g. for clients, it would be ideal to have a single function call that, given a host name and port number, combines the DNS lookup with PR_Connect and SSL_SetURL, automatically handling both IPv4/IPv6 and verifying the host name against the certificate.
