I would definitely recommend providing as strict as possible hostname
verification in the stdlib, but provide application developers a way to
override that.

M2Crypto (and TLS Lite, from which I copied the approach to M2Crypto),
provide a default post connection checker. See
http://svn.osafoundation.org/m2crypto/trunk/M2Crypto/SSL/Connection.py
and the set_post_connection_check_callback() as well as
http://svn.osafoundation.org/m2crypto/trunk/M2Crypto/SSL/Checker.py.
