Option to Auto-Trust SSL Certificate?

[aaronsteers]

I'm in a situation where I'm running this tap from a linux machine that is not part for the Windows domain, and there's (apparently?) no shared CA or already-installed SSL certificates to facilitate SSL security.

1. Is there any ability to add an option to auto-trust the SSL certificate?
2. Is there some other way around this I might not be aware of? I feel like this should be pretty common use - is there a way to get the SSL cert installed automatically? And/or some other solution I haven't through of.

I'm getting up to speed on Clojure as a programming language - happy to contribute code here if there's an option to do so. Thanks!
