but does not produce any feedback.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Select Tasks > Privacy and Security > Security Manager.

trying to access certain HTTPS sites.

did you install PSM?
Debug -> Install PSM

Installing PSM did the trick!  Would it be possible to alert the user that PSM 
needs to be installed whenever they try to access an HTTPS site without it?

Damn I'm pretty sure this is a dup (no error message), but I can't find it! Help 
me! ;)

Marking worksforme. Any day now PSM will be built into Mozilla, and a warning 
that it is not installed will not be necessary.

Verified worksforme, however this won't work with 12/7 and 12/8 builds due to 
bug 62085.
