+Export pkcs12 file in a format compatible with Java keystore usage. This option
+accepts a string parameter indicating the trust oid name to be granted to the
+certificate it is associated with.  Currently only "anyExtendedKeyUsage" is
+defined. Note that, as Java keystores do not accept PKCS12 files with both
+trusted certificates and keypairs, use of this option implies the setting of the
