Wouldn't it be simpler to use VirtualHost so you only respond with content to requests for your domain?

Then set it up so requests without the domain name get a 301 redirect to the canonical URL.

on Apache, SSL and VirtualHost don't play together.

They do with Apache 2.2.12 or later and any recent browser:

I'm using SNI on all of my domains, and it works great.
