> The CryptoFactory type supports dynamic loading of Crypto instances through the getInstance operation (it would be more appropriate to call this "createInstance", but that's a separate issue). The relevant operation signature is
> getInstance(java.lang.String, java.util.Properties)
> For implementors who would like to supply their own Crypto implementations, however, a Properties object may not be sufficient, since a Properties maps strings to strings. It would be more general, and helpful, to define this operation to take a java.util.Map (which java.util.Properties implements), so that pre-allocated/constructed objects can be passed through this interface.
> This should be a binary-compatible change (assuming the Merlin implementation is changed to downcast to a Properties object)
> I would be happy to supply a patch.
