Since this change looks minor, and it comes from a community member I am inclined to allow into 8.0.1.

How bad is the conflict for the other change you are referring to Darran?

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.
