Then FireFox has made the deliberate choice of excluding millions of users. There are millions of users who use identity management solutions where user-certs and priv-keys are put into the OS store of their devices.
Using the OS secure-store should be a preference option. The folks who don't want to use the "political baggage" of the OS manufacturer - as you put it - can continue to use their pristine gardens.

Or am I totally misunderstanding this and that's something totally different?
- lenkite 7y agoI didn't know about this option - thanks. This option basically uses the OS cert store for server certificates, which is one part of the story. Now, if they also did this for client-certificates then all the folks in companies that use corporate certificate-based single-sign-on can use FireFox!
