can a virtual host have its own privatly used SSL certificate?
hi;
i am going to put my application in a shared hosting solution which does
not provide any shared SSL support.
is it possible to buy and put a SSL certificate in the scope of my virtual
host in the hosting company. (i mean is it technically possible -
disregarding the hosting company policy).

Good to hear that. IMHO, it will not be so much the server-side-support
problem, but clients. There are a lot of clients out there and making
them all compliant will take some time.
Nix.

HTTP/TLS does exist, it just isn't supported by the major servers yet.

SSL is done on IP level. I think (correct me if I'm wrong) that TLS is
on application level, but I haven't heard of HTTP/TLS.
What this boils down to is that a certificate can be issued for only one
host on one physical IP. If you have virtual hosts, only one of them
can have a certificate.
Nix.

Technical short answer: no.
