Oh, I see.  It was only possible to have a single certificate in previous 
versions of stunnel.  Now each service can have a separate certificate, so 
each service asks for a key.  It's possible to cache previously entered pass 
phrases.

Not in current version of stunnel.
I'll add the code for caching passwords with the next release.
