Package: ca-certificates
Version: 20151214
Severity: wishlist

Hi.

Right now, the selection dialog when reconfiguring
the enabled certificates shows the pathnames of their
files, which in turn are apparently based on the OU
filed.
This seems in many cases pretty unclear, e.g.
"mozilla/ePKI_Root_Certification_Authority.crt"

It would help IMHO, if additionally the whole subject DN
would be printed, e.g.
"/C=TW/O=Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd./OU=ePKI Root Certification Authority"

Given that Mozilla includes for money basically any
CA nowadays, even such which are inherently untrustworthy
it seems especially helpful, if the C filed would
be shown, so that people who don't want to make themselves
unnecessarily victims of totalitarian countries, can
more easily sort out CAs from there.

Thanks,
Chris.
