It does not have to be too elaborate or nothing :)
It can be `The currently supported types are CTYPE-X509, CTYPE-RAWPK or CTYPE-RAWPUBKEY which apply both to server and client, with catch all being CTYPE-ALL. The types CTYPE-CLI-X509, CTYPE-SRV-X509, CTYPE-SRV-X509, CTYPE-CLI-RAWPK, CTYPE-SRV-RAWPK can be used to specialize on server or client. The 'X509' is aliased to 'X.509' for legacy reasons`.

(btw. why do we alias RAWPUBKEY we do not have any such legacy requirement, so why give a choice here?)
