Chris is right that it's a bit premature to submit a CSR while the 
question on whether to rename the existing security property is on the 
table. I have no objection to doing that. It probably means we need the 
code to read this property moved to a jdk.internal package and change 
the networking, NIO, and JAR code to use that. It introduces a small 
compatibility issue with JDK 11 jdk.net property so that will need to be 
handled too.
