This comes back to our idea for bettercrypto which we had ~ a year ago (or even longer ;-) - to make a drop down menu website where you select your OS, your distri version, ssl lib version and clients you want to support -> click “generate cipher string” and there you go.
However, this is probably needs some kind of automatic regression/compatibility testing.

Maybe.
How much work can it be?
