Turnkey Reverse Proxy and SSL App - for accessing apps on *internal network*

[Scyto]

Many folks seems to struggle with making this all work

A default app that:

• puts all other apps by default on 443 for appname.local
• and for those that have DNS name on appname.mydomian.mytld
• bootstraps certs for both (self signed for .local and acme signed for mydomain)
• still leaves how to make acme DNS challenge 'easy or seamless' - but this sort of simplicity makes changing for OS easy (i guess you could run a subscription service for doing DNS name hosting, challenges, etc?)
• this default proxy should also be able to be turned off for those that wish to roll their own (say NPM or traefik)

this proposal is making no statement about external connectivity as that discussion always turns into a poop-show of competing opinions.

+1. Synology has something like this, and it is very useful, even if it is just configuring the underlying NGNIX instance
