Darran Lofthouse commented on ELY-755:
--------------------------------------

I don't know if it gets too complicated but maybe we don't go for my clean up pull request and instead go for something where the AuthenticationContext falls back to the AuthenticationConfiguration if the conrtext has no match.

> One thing that was lost in the switch to separate SSL context configuration was the ability to perform client SSL authentication using certificates or other credentials configured in the authentication client configuration.
> There should be a configuration option to replace the key manager for the client SSL context with one which uses the authentication configuration to retrieve, at minimum, certificate credentials.  Plus whatever is necessary to forward or set a GSSCredential for Kerberos-based mechanisms.
