O, more green in japitool! Yes, lets include it then.
Yes, I see the point, and it looks like even though this is a bit of
code duplication the implementation is so minimal that it will need not
much (any) maintenance at all.
But I still think our own code (HandshakeCompletedEvent and SSLSession)
should use java.security.cert directly and not javax.security.cert.
