Thanks for the nudge: there's a whole string of other factory beans in to build BasicCredential & BasicX509Credential from files (Resources) or from inline data down in net.shibboleth.idp.profile.spring.relyingparty.security.credential.impl (note: this is impl but that can be changed).

Their use is pretty much tailored for the use of the custom parsers where the credentials are supplied inline or in a file

They probably won't help the OP, but if he wants to suggest making them non imple I'd listen (and as an aside to myself I probably need to see about removing any overlap with the (non-impl) BasicX509CredentialFactoryBean.
