Yes, we have our capsules (4 per region) sitting behind load balancers 
using custom SSL. A few gotchas for Satellite:

1. katello-ca-consumer-latest sets subscription manager with the capsules 
hostname. So after the install of that rpm , we update the subscription 
manager config to the load balancer
2. Puppet ssl and tftp directories need to be shares - we use NFS for this 
- you will need to write a selinux module to deal with this, default 
modules break due to NFS.
3. All the capsules MUST be registered in Satellite AND be assigned the 
same life cycles etc.
4. The LB MUST be registered as a dummy capsule but DO NOT assign any life 
cycles to this.
