serve2d looks promising, can see some good uses for it.

If anyone's interested, Corkscrew is an alternative solution, allows you to disguise SSH as HTTP/HTTPS traffic, useful for getting through restrictive firewalls to administer remote machines:

I guess the best way to find alternative solutions is to write one and have people tell you there's other like it! I genuinely didn't know there were so many doing equivalent things.

I do think serve2d is considerably more flexible than Corkscrew, though, being able to tunnel anything over TLS if needed. Or other transports, if more are added. I also let you use the same ports for other things.

It doesn't disguise it does it? I think it just uses the CONNECT support in proxies. You need something like httptunnel to disguise the traffic.
