That sounds about right. Forwarding to a second VIP won't help with trying to handle multiple certs on a single client facing IP address:port combination as you'd need to try to decrypt the SSL on the first VIP before knowing which traffic to forward to the second VIP. Sending the "wrong" cert on the first VIP to the client will trigger the mismatched cert warning on the browser before you can send the request to the second VIP with the "correct" cert.
