Details

(Whiteboard: [psm-auth]) 

We need to enhance the support for SSL client authentication.

I would like to find and implement a solution that works equally well for all applications, including Firefox and Thunderbird.

Perhaps we should compile a list of open issues for FF and TB?  Or maybe there already is a wiki page with this list?  I'd be happy to contribute.
The list of open issues is at https://wiki.mozilla.org/PSM:CertPrompt

I have started to work on a design and will talk about it when it has some first reviews.
