> The Java Client's connection url option ssl_verify_hostname has traditionally defaulted to false meaning that during the SSL negotiation the Java client ignores hostname errors.   This is weak: by default the client should validate the hostname.  If users should be forced to turn host name verification off if desired.
> I believe this will also bring the behaviour of the Java client in line with the CPP client (QPID-5841)
