Is it possible to authenticate with kerberos for the http requests Jira makes to itself?

We encountered https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/how-to-fix-gadget-titles-showing-as-__msg_gadget-813697086.html and noticed that the requests JIRA makes to itself are not authenticated with Kerberos. We tried adding some things to the file specified with the property:

java.security.auth.login.config

We have:

com.sun.security.jgss.login {
    com.sun.security.auth.module.GssLoginModule required client=TRUE initiate=true;
};
com.sun.security.jgss.initiate {
    com.sun.security.auth.module.GssLoginModule required client=TRUE initiate=true;
};
com.sun.security.jgss.accept {
    com.sun.security.auth.module.GssLoginModule required client=TRUE accept=true;
};
com.sun.security.jgss.krb5.initiate {
    com.sun.security.auth.module.GssLoginModule required client=TRUE initiate=true;
};
com.sun.security.jgss.krb5.accept {
    com.sun.security.auth.module.GssLoginModule required client=TRUE accept=true;
};
krbLogin{
    com.sun.security.auth.module.GssLoginModule required doNotPrompt=false debug=true useTicketCache=false;
};

We do have Kerberos authentication working to our database via this section of that file:

SQLJDBCDriver {
    com.sun.security.auth.module.GssLoginModule required initiate=true;
};

What configuration can we add to make the http requests authenticate?

How about the Marketplace addons  ? 

As I see they cover request

Alternatively, could we change the hostname and port for this request to be something other than the baseUrl of jira? (e.g. localhost)?
