Description

This isn't trivial; there are API implications: https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9181

It also requires API extensions from the underlying SSL library, which means we probably won't be able to implement it as long as we're stuck on the stdlib ssl module. Hopefully PEP 543 will be ready soon enough, and have the required hooks, to make this possible?

Research direction

Read the linked Twisted ticket and inspect Trio's use of Python's stdlib ssl module. Check whether PEP 543 and the required underlying SSL-library API hooks are available; the issue does not name files or tests, and completion would require resolving the API implications and dependency blocker.
