Farah Juma commented on ELY-593:
--------------------------------

For channel binding negotiation, we need to know whether or not the client supports channel binding. This information is used by a GS2 SASL client to set a flag that signals the channel binding mode. It's possible for a client to support channel binding even if the mechanism selected does not support it. This means that we actually need to handle the {{ChannelBindingCallback}} in {{Gs2SaslClientFactory.createSaslClient}} regardless of whether or not the GS2 mechanism being considered actually supports channel binding.

> There are a couple of opportunities to optimise the createSaslClient method.
> # Check that one of the mechanisms in the list is supported in principal.
> # The ChannelBindingCallback can possibly also be delayed until the selection reaches a mechanism that requires it.
