Adding a certificate exception for non-trusted HTTPS sites is
difficult

Status in “xulrunner-1.9” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
Binary package hint: epiphany-browser
SUMMARY
Epiphany's handling of adding HTTPS certificates is not as streamlined as it
could be. Presently users are presented with an error, and they then must click
"Or you can add an exception…" then "Add exception..." then they must re-enter
the URL with the problem, press "Get Certificate" and "Confirm Security
Exception"
Problems with the current solution:
1. it requires a lengthy sequence of steps
2. some of the steps look like doing the same thing twice "I want to add an
exception"... "no, I really want to add an exception!"
3. it requires re-entering the problematic URL. Not all users will really
understand what this means. Some users will have clicked on a link to get to
the page. They then have to copy the URL from the location bar, or realise that
it can be selected for copy+paste, which is not entirely obvious.
4. Once you press "Confirm Security Exception", you still are presented with
the original error and need to reload the page
Early comments on this bug describe earlier handling, which was far
more obscure again.
Please note, you do not need to report each non-working site
individually in this bug.
