------------------------------------

I'm going to integrate the original patch (without the unlockkey addition).  

I didn't apply the most recent unlockkey patch but the earlier patch had 
several problems that I think we need to work out with some discussion before 
we go down that path.  My recommendation is that we close this JIRA and create 
a new JIRA for the unlock key issue.  

For the moment, not integrating the unlock key function means that when a user 
adds a new key they need to go back to the availability lock, lock it, unlock 
it, and then select the newly added key to unlock the specific key.   Here are 
some of the issues I think exists once we start to unlock the key in other 
places:

1)  It seems like jetty has some problems if there is more than one unlocked 
key in the same keystore.  I'm not sure what these are exactly, but I couldn't 
get jetty to start once I had more than one key unlocked.  I think this is the 
largest issue.
2)  If we provide the ability to unlock specific keys within a keystore then it 
seems like we should also provide the ability to lock keys from the same panel.
3)  After unlocking a key it didn't return me to the same panel that I had 
locked from ... rather it took me to a different panel.
4)  I received some exceptions from portlet state when performing either the 
lock or the unlock (I can't remember).  This may have been corrected in the 
most recent patch.
