[issue18233] SSLSocket.getpeercertchain()

[chaen]

chaen <christophe.haen at cern.ch> added the comment:

There is another very valid use case which is even described by an RFC: https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3820.txt

And openssl supports this RFC. 

These proxy certificates are heavily used in the world of high energy physics computing, and having the get_peer_cert_chain exposed in python would allow to use standard tools. 

And any hope this would also be backported to the python 2.7 branch ?
