Just want to mention that if certificates are managed, this would be
fairly simple to add to VPC routers as well. The haproxy loadbalancer
config would just need to be passed the cert and a slightly different
config. So hopefully it has been implemented in such a way that it's
easy to reuse for VPC, the certs aren't tied to netscaler objects or
something like that.
