Yeah this is apples and oranges. 

Bug 25965 is about adding support for HTTPS which wouldn't be helpful for
99.99% of libraries. 

We did have bug 25972 for adding SSL/TLS support to the SIP server, but ended
up closing it, since stunnel is an already working industry standard. That
said, if someone did want to build SSL/TLS support into our SIP server, I don't
think it would be very hard at all.
