                 Key: RAMPARTC-108
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAMPARTC-108
             Project: Rampart/C
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: OMXMLSecurity, Rampart-core
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
         Environment: N/A
            Reporter: Malinda Kaushalye Kapuruge

Right now Rampart/C supports standard ways of processing key information 
appearing in the SOAP header. For example SKI (Subject Key identifier) is used 
to get the certificate information. 
But in future, service writers might need to use more sophisticated and 
application oriented ways of key info processing. One example would be a 
service hosted by a university would like to get the student ID as the key 
identification of it's students. With current features either Rampart/C code 
need to be modified to achieve this.
What I'm suggesting is that we can use a callback mechanism to get the 
certificate/key based on claims in SOAP security header.
Any comments?
