Comment (by cas):

 My initial comment refers to the use of the _ssl module to create a SSL
 secured communication channel between a client UI and the server parts of
 BIND 10. I'm not sure PKCS# 11 or SoftHSM will provide a solution here.

 There are Python bindings to Botan that could possibly be used to create a
 SSL/TLS connection.

 It is possible to compile Python (3) without _ssl, so OpenSSL is not
 required.

 I agree the on standard (Linux) installations, OpenSSL is almost always
 there and is pulled in as an dependency to Python3, but in some
 environments a minimal installation is required for security audit
 reasons, and there it would be good to be able to have a BIND 10
 installation without OpenSSL in addition to Botan.
