Does OpenVPN support ECDH parameters yet? openssl supports ecparam[1], and polarssl is now supporting it in their development branch[2].

We'll use standard DHE if the user selects an RSA cert (2048, 3072, or 4096). And we'll use ECDHE if the user selects an Elliptic Curve cert. We'll also be displaying a disclaimer about the potential issues with ECC (certain experts believe TLS curves may be compromised/weakened) if the user selects that.
