Description

It would be very helpful if FTPSClient could accept a pre-configured SSLContext instead of creating a new one. If an application has more than one library using SSL (e.g. a database and web server, in addition to an ftp client), it is preferable to configure the SSLContext once and then share it amongst the necessary services.

Moreover, we don't use the "keystore" system properties to configure our SSLContext so having this functionality is a must.
