No they aren't.  SSL will work just fine as a name-based virtual host with  
any modern webserver / browser. (Server Name Indication (SNI) [RFC3546,  
sec 3.1])

FTP?  Who uses FTP these days?  Certainly not consumers.  Even Cisco  
pushes almost everything via a webserver. (they still have ftp servers,  
they just don't put much on them these days.)
