Description

Are there any plans for a general-purpose TLS connection middleware? I'm looking to add TLS support to Orleans (which uses sockets). I saw #11109, but it's specific to HTTPS.

(Related to Bedrock / #4772)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate existing TLS middleware implementations in ASP.NET Core, particularly the HTTPS middleware (#11109), and understand how Bedrock (#4772) handles general purpose TLS. Explore the feasibility of a similar non HTTP TLS middleware for Orleans sockets.
