It is possible to create a standard JSSE impl, but only for 1.4 JDK. In
previous JDK's the required classes were of the com.sun.net.ssl variety,
which of course is ugly. There is no cross-vm solution for JDKs prior to
1.4 that I am aware of.

Subject: Re: Client Auth / Certificates
It sure would be useful however I am not sure if it is possible. I never
used a standard JSSE implementation. We used SSLava in our projects
(because it's supposed to be faster) and SSLava is does not have a JSSE
interface. So I wrote a SSLSocketFactory that configured SSLava to use a
specific client certificate. Maybe with a JSSE compatible implementation
this can be done in a generic way. The implementation that I have is
very SSLava specific and probably of no use to anybody else.
