PR #25 implements a stopgap solution. The various sore points listed there mean in general we're better off replacing PR #25's implementation with the one outlined in istio/istio#20602, if possible. If it turns out it can't be done, then we'll have to deal with the shortcomings of #25. But notice that if we move the whole adapter DAPS config to K8s secret volumes (not just the keys), most of those sore points will be non-issues. See #15.
