I might have expressed it wrong, but what I wanted to tell is how JD
read it. Sure it is technically possible to use self-signed certificates
for SASL EXTERNAL. And if you do it within your own administrative
domain, you have full security as well (maybe not using really
self-signed certs but certs signed by your own CA).
