In my case, I work for a SaaS provider that performs virtual hosting using customer-provided SSL certificates (myservice.customer.com). This puts us in the unenviable position of having to maintain thousands of IP address endpoints, one per customer, along with all the network-related complexity that goes along with it.

SNI would help a lot, but unfortunately it will never be a feature in the SSL client code in Windows XP (which MSIE uses) and so we're stuck with this for the foreseeable future.
