Using TLS termination with JWTs

What question do you have?:

Is it possible to use JWT authentication with contour while terminating TLS on e.g. an ALB

Trying to do this gives the error Spec.VirtualHost.JWTProviders can only be defined for root HTTPProxies, but I don't see why this should be a requirement. Why is terminating TLS in any way related to JWTs?

Anything else you would like to add: [Miscellaneous information that will assist in solving the issue.]

Environment:

• Contour version:
• Kubernetes version: (use kubectl version):
• Kubernetes installer & version:
• Cloud provider or hardware configuration:
• OS (e.g. from /etc/os-release):
