Should this be HostName? Would that be more descriptive?

I used the same terminology as crypto/tls: https://pkg.go.dev/crypto/tls#ConnectionState, and I though that in the context of a ClientTLS block, ServerName would have a clear meaning.
But I understand that it may be misleading due to the fact that a server also has a server_name, so I would like for you to make the choice 😅

Good point, we can stick with ServerName or SNI.

I think that SNI may be the best candidate here. Googling "tls sni" gives pretty relevant results, and it does not reuse an existing field name from other claims data.
If that's ok with you, I can push a commit with this modification.

The change would be:
VerifiedChains []StringList `json:"verified_chains,omitempty"`
- ServerName string `json:"server_name,omitempty"`
+ SNI string `json:"sni,omitempty"`There was a problem hiding this comment.
Looping in @philpennock and @ripienaar for their opinions here. I could do either.
