Thank you! Fantastic proposal, thanks for having the guts to challenge
status quo and seriously suggest that. I hope this is carried forward
and implemented and does not just die out.


Isn't this what Firefox already does? E.g. store the remembered decision
permanently? Besides, I realized that the flag to remember is set by
default on and is easily forgotten (judging from some exceptions I'd
rather have not remembered).


Well, what Firefox does is cert-exception-click-thru-ordeal; whereas people are asking for key-continuity-management, with perhaps the emphasis on the last word.

Petnames and Trustbar are good place to look at for models. Store the continuity info as a bookmark, and then manage the arrangement from there. Validate the cert and domain once, as a bookmark, and manage it later on when something changes.
