Guess you could say noise is pretty quiet xD
+1 for trying to eliminate complexity from developer error. This was one of the worst cows in the herd for OpenSSL.
That said, I think a bit of good design on the APIs part can go a long way. For Instance, I think Go's crypto/tls aint bad: Its pretty difficult to 'accidentally' configure it in a shocking configuration (suites have to be overridden, turning off verification requires you to set a field called InsecureNoVerify etc).
