Great IF cert is not used by Java

Product: Standard SSL Wildcard

I've been a huge fan of GoDaddy for domain services and until SHA256 certs became mandantory, SSL certs as well. We used GoDaddy for our wildcard domain SSL cert and it turns out that the root servers are not included in the Java KeyStore. To make matters MUCH worse, the certificate chain seems to include a root server, a 1st level intermediate server and a 2nd level intermediate server. The root server and 1st level intermediate server have _identical_ subjects meaning same CN, OU O etc... This seems to make loading the SHA256 cert chain servers into the Java KeyStore impossible from my attempts and that of a support vendor. To get cert to authenticate, needed to move the SSL resolution onto our load balancer. Seems crazy that chain servers are named identical and that after all this time issuing SHA256 certs, they are still not included by default in the Java KeyStore values. If we run into any more issues like this, we'll be forced to get our SSL cert from an alternate source. From forums, GoDaddy has known about this issue a long time already.
