I have 2 certificates that can be used to authenticate to CMS's agent interface. I disabled the "Select Automatically" option, and now I am seeing a "User Identification Request" window when authenticating to CMS. I intentionally picked the regular user certificate to authentication. CMS refused to let the user in. But then I refreshed the browser. The browser did not give me a chance to re-authenticate with the correct certificate.
I've noticed the same in 4.77. You have to exit the browser and pick the correct cert to present.

Suggest closing WONTFIX. This can be done server-side, by having the server force a full handshake (e.g. by invalidating the SSL session cache entry and closing the connection).

I agree with WONTFIX. There is another workaround, you can use the Tools / Logout feature. Well, at least you can in Mozilla Suite / Seamonkey. Looks like there is no such feature in the Firefox or Thunderbird UI, how sad.
