a. Better HTTPS with Client authentication : - In order to avoid too many PIN/Password requests (HTTPS hanshakes), downloads first the initial jar (mono-thread) then all remaining ones (multi-thread) - In case of initial jar download failure (Client Certificate Selection cancel, incorrect PIN/Password, ...), fail fast and do not try to download remaining jars - No resource prefetch, otherwise deployment.cache.parallelDownloadCount is not enforced b. New Security Dialog UI for Client Certificate Selection : - Ability to display details on each certificate - Shown in TaskBar - Cancellable - Selection using double-click, Enter key or OK button - Internationalization c. SmartCard support on Windows - Introduction of a Merged Key Manager for user, system and browser key stores - Client alias selection using a preference algorithm : a) Get all non-expired aliases with extension ClientCert (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.2) or ANY (2.5.29.37.0) if only one, it is selected, if more than one, a UI helps to select one of them. b) Otherwise, get all expired aliases with extension ClientCert (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.2) or ANY (2.5.29.37.0) if only one, it is selected, if more than one, a UI helps to select one of them. c) Otherwise, get all remaining aliases if only one, it is selected, if more than one, a UI helps to select one of them. - UI will display the suffix " (from user keystore)" or " (from system keystore)" or " (from browser keystore)" - If user cancels the Client Certificate UI, it is remembered for next chooseClientAlias call - Client alias selection is cached per remote host
