Is your feature request related to a problem?

Increasingly the WifiClientInsecure example seems to be making it into actual products on the market. Which is not ideal.

Describe the solution you'd like

At the very least provide people with some middle ground; i.e. when their deployment setting does not allow for a hardcode CA cert (e.g. when the server is not known ahead of time).

Describe alternatives you've considered

An elaborate example with a web-portal that shows how to upload/enter a certificate; but this moves some of the hard complexity to endusers which then require a lot of skills.
