A use case for this feature request is when NGNIX needs to build a custom mTLS client certificate for authentication to upstreams.

@osokin @gallarda Did you investigate using https://www.npmjs.com/package/@peculiar/x509#set-crypto-provider-for-nodejs for this usecase?

I see it uses WebCrypto API, that is already supported in NJS.
