Hi,

Darran, I understand your point of view, but stable version of 9 will be
not released tomorrow. Lack of pkcs12 support in 8 is a major issue, not to
mention that in AS 7 I was able to use this format for https private key. I
think it will be useful to fix it yet in 8, even thought the code with a
fix will be thrown away in 9.

I made a pull request with a fix (
https://github.com/wildfly/wildfly/pull/6062). It is up to you what you do
with it.

Thank you for your answers and clarifications.

Kind Regards,
Marek Zupnik
