Hi, Working with Java and the JCA KeyStore for decades, I came across many situations where I thought it would be convenient to be able to load private keys and certificates in PEM format directly using the KeyStore API. Without the need to convert them to PKCS#12/JKS.
You can find my implementation of a PEM KeyStore in https://github.com/KarlScheibelhofer/java-crypto-tools. I wondered if it would make sense to integrate such an implementation in one of the standard providers of OpenJDK - like the SUN provider. What do you think? Best regards Karl
