Which is ridiculous given that it really is a *very* small change.

GLB should be able to compute "SRV 0 0 80 <target>” and "SRV 0 0 443 <target>" as easily as they compute "CNAME <target>”.  That should be no more than 30 minutes work to add even if you are doing it in assembler. It might even be faster in assembler. It uses all the same mechanisms to figure out the target.
