> The Zookeeper libraries currently allow you to set up your SSL Context via 
> system properties such as "zookeeper.ssl.keyStore.location" in the X509Util. 
> This covers most simple use cases, where users have software keystores on 
> their harddrive.
> There are, however, a few additional scenarios that this doesn't cover. Two 
> possible ones would be:
>  # The user has a hardware keystore, loaded in using PKCS11 or something 
> similar.
>  # The user has no access to the software keystore, but can retrieve an 
> already-constructed SSLContext from their container.
> For this, I would propose that the X509Util be extended to allow a user to 
> set a property such as "zookeeper.ssl.client.context" to provide a class 
> which supplies a custom SSL context. This gives a lot more flexibility to the 
> ZK client, and allows the user to construct the SSLContext in whatever way 
> they please (which also future proofs the implementation somewhat).
> I've already completed this feature, and will put in a PR soon for it.
