Details

Algorithm is as follows: If the chain chains to an already trusted root, the user [optionally?] gets a success dialog, but is not asked to trust anything. If the chain chains to a root that is not already trusted, the user is prompted as to whether they want to trust the existing root. If the chain doesn't chain to any root, the user is prompted as to whether he wants to trust the ca highest in the chain (i.e,. closest to an hypothetical root).
