On the contrary, this makes the app simpler because configuration now is
something of a hole: the app doesn't need to know anything about it, it
just passes through settings from a config file.
We do this in our sshd already, so it won't need _any_ changes in order
to use this new configuration parameter.

I'm going to call them S4U2Proxy creds. To me that's what they are. It
tells me what I need to know: that initiator credentials for the service
are needed.
