[New-bugs-announce] [issue17133] ssl.wrap_socket doesn't take server_hostname as a kwarg

[Vinay Sajip]

New submission from Vinay Sajip:

The wrap_socket function in ssl.py (unlike the method of the same name in SSLContext) doesn't accept a server_hostname argument, despite the fact that it's a one-liner calling SSLSocket, which does take that argument. It it like this for a reason, or just an oversight?

Unless there is some reason not to do so, I think a server_hostname kwarg should be added to the wrap_socket function.
