Also, so mean of verification is required (otherwise, back to point 0 being

Yes, client and server side certificates are needed.
Here are the SPICE TLS options in QEMU:
tls-port=<nr>
Set the TCP port spice is listening on for encrypted channels.
x509-dir=<dir>
Set the x509 file directory. Expects same filenames as -vnc $display,x509=$dir
x509-key-file=<file>
x509-key-password=<file>
x509-cert-file=<file>
x509-cacert-file=<file>
x509-dh-key-file=<file>
The x509 file names can also be configured individually.
tls-ciphers=<list>
Specify which ciphers to use.
I guess NBD would need similar options althoug I haven't investigated
TLS in depth yet.
