What about keeping the simple SSLPolicy directive (the name of the
policy to apply) and renaming the container directive from <SSLPolicy>
to <SSLPolicyDefinition>.
One other solution would by keeping <SSLPolicy> and rewnaming the simple
directive to SSLPolicyApply.

Sounds fine to me. I will also respect your decision if you choose not
to make this change, as I said elsewhere in the thread.

Thanks for all the input. What I see is consensus about the SSLPolicy change:
'SSLPolicy' -> stay as is
'<SSLPolicy' -> '<SSLPolicyDefine'
(I prefer the verb above the noun here since mod_ssl uses verbs in other config name.)
If no one objects, I will go for this change in the next days.
Cheers,
Stefan
