we could do it like Apache[0] and have an optional prefix before the 
cipher spec indicating whether its for <= TLS 1.2 or for TLS 1.3, and 
allow specifying it multiple times - but that is not really less 
confusing than two parameters?

the contents are incompatible, openssl has different methods for setting 
them (with different semantics!), so having two parameters doesn't seem 
too bad..

I'll follow whatever the result of this discussion here is for my perl 
(PVE/PMG) series in any case ;)

but doesn't support TLS 1.3 cipher suites AFAICT (requiring a workaround 
of injecting them via a 'set arbitrary openssl.cnf parameters' nginx 
config parameter![1]).
