I should have been clearer - my use of the term feedback loop was
meant to imply that this was an out-of-band method of populating a
cache of valid HTTPS IP addresses (as well as the any SNI and even
'Application name') for HTTPS, and observed non-HTTPS traffic over 443
and any other ports.  This may compliment any active external acl
style checking.

Was just thinking out loud - probably a crazy idea if every seriously
considered :)

Regards,

Chris
