[TrustBar] Feature request

[Amir Herzberg]

Ram: do you mean you want TrustBar to help with a site certified by a CA 
not in the list of trusted CAs in the browser? I'm not sure this is a 
good idea - this will make TrustBar change an internal browser control.

Or, do you mean, that when you reach a site whose cert is signed by a CA 
which you don't fully trust, you want to tell TrustBar `ok, use this 
cert, but don't automatically trust this CA`? If this is what you mean, 
then this option already exists; in the dialog, you simply select `trust 
this identification by...` (name of CA). In fact, this is supposed to 
(become/be) the default.

Is this what you wanted? Do you think we should change the text?

Thanks, Amir Herzberg
