Darran Lofthouse commented on WFLY-1598:
----------------------------------------

Providing the common handling of SSLContexts may be the best time to provide additional capabilities to this single approach to SSLContexts to also manage new keys and certificates.

> There are various reasons that we do not support SSL/TLS out of the box e.g.
>  - If we ship a default keystore then everyone has access to the private key.
>  - Generating one on first boot we do not have sufficient information to generate it correctly, also the performance overhead.
> This issue is to explorer other options to encourage their use and make it easier to configure.
> As an example could the admin console detect a non encrypted connection and have an box that encourages the config along with a wizard like workflow to get it set up?
