-user experience-  
Hi everybody, I am new to the forum and just thought I had to leave my most recent "thought about nodes"... I have been searching for hours to find a simple solution allowing secure MySQL database communication, so far without success. I think it would be awesome if there was a contribution that allowed us to simply activate a TLS option and add certificates (or the respective paths).
