Probably the greatest one would be interoperability with other BEEP 
implementations.  Also I suspect you have more visibility into the
TLS stuff withing the BEEP context/framework as it may set tuning
information based on the TLS negotiation rather than the JSSE which
is external.

Did you take a look at the SOAP over BEEP proposal that Marshall did?  Would
this do what you need?  I don't know if it's been implemented anywhere though.
