Katello isn't - but I never said I was arguing for Katello's specific 
deployment scenario. I am looking at this from the general use case. If there 
is a Pulp installed over on Server A, and I have access to use it via the CLI 
or API and want to set up an event notifier to hit my box running on Server B 
that is running via HTTPS I cannot, at present, do this because I have to 
implant my server CA certificate on Server A which I may not have control over. 
Unless I am missing something fundamental to this workflow?
