> A common request is that when a server is configured for SSL the alias to use from the KeyStore can be specified - this can be a little short sighted as a huge advantage of multiple entries in a single KeyStore is that different entries can be used depending on the selected cipher suite.
> A better option may be to add alias filtering so a wrapper KeyStore can still make a number of underlying entries available.
> Alias filtering is better handled at the KeyStore level as the KeyManager should be performing additional checks to ensure the keys and signatures are compatible with the current cipher suite.
