I agree that this would be useful.  However it's probably not trivial to
implement.  Each protocol (FTP, LDAP, SMTP, etc) has its own dialogue to go
through before the STARTTLS command can be issued, as well as negotiations
to determine whether STARTTLS is supported, and how to handle in the
negative.  These protocols don't even use the same command (POP uses
"STLS", for example).
