Hi,
as I saw now, the subject is confusing. I changed it.
And made the long story shorter.
(Originally I wanted to complain about loading the
default CAs, but now it's documented at least.)

These two lines should behave the same way:
# tls_verify_certificates = // not set
tls_verify_certificates = ${if eq{a}{b}{CA}fail} // forced failure
--> depending on tls_verify_host a configuration error
And these lines should behave the same way
tls_verify_certificates = // empty string
tls_verify_certificates = ${if eq{a}{b}{CA}} // empty string
--> always a valid configuration, but probably no verification
success
All other settings should load the trust store for verification.
