Is there any reason not to have 8223269 in JDK baseline?

Hi Sean,

Thanks for your answer.

Even though newer JDKs should be using the PKCS12 keystore format, there
are still customers using the old JKS format and they would benefit from
this feature.

Is there any objection if I propose this for JDK base line?

Thanks,
Martin.-
