Is it possible to store an encrypted keystore_password and truststore_password in the cassandra.yaml? I see that the defaults allow cleartext which isn't suitable when negotiating with security specialists for sign-off of a solution...
From: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cassandra/trunk/conf/cassandra.yaml # The passwords used in these options must match the passwords used when generating # the keystore and truststore.
