Please take a review of

   https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8202590

This enhancement has two major purposes:

1. Provide a way to change encryption and Mac algorithms used in PKCS 12.

2. The ability to create a password-less PKCS 12 keystore containing unencrypted certificates and no Mac.

Especially, the long paragraph in the spec on behavior of an existing keystore makes sure that once a password-less keystore is generated (with -Dkeystore.pkcs12.certProtectionAlgorithm=NONE and -Dkeystore.pkcs12.macAlgorithm=NONE), one can add new certificates to it without any special setting and keep it password-less.

Thanks
