It would be more useful if we could run Convergence as, say, a SOCKS proxy,
because then we could use any internet-facing program with Convergence.
For example, package managers would benefit from being able to trust the
repository servers reliably.

I don't know about any similar applications that do the trick, Searching online for "distributed ssl verification" yielded no relevant results.
