Hi,

1) Would it not be an good idea to check the first bytes of the message
so that the dual class already know what type the stream is
and there is no unnecessary instanciation of exceptions and engine class?
2) If we add an "smart" keystore why we limit it to two types? I do not
see any reason why it should not be possible to add other store types to:
 - JCEKS
 - PKCS11
 It could be extended via securit property
 java.security.smartKeystore.<N>.type = PKCS11
 java.security.smartKeystore.<N>.magic = <HexSequence> (Optional for
Performance)
 java.security.smartKeystore.<N>.engineClass = CanonicalEngine Class Name

This would be only an small code change but an usefull improvement.

Gruß Thomas
