Hello all, I was wondering if it is possible to extend the current web
browser with any kind of plugin (such as Firefox plugins).

I have read that Webkit supports the concept of plugin, but I don't
have any clue of how to do that in the Android web browser or if it is
the best approach.

What I really want to do is that when a secure page requests
authentication by a client certificate, the browser asks another
application if it could provide a valid one (currently Android fails
showing a "Failed to perform SSL handshake" error).

In the Android API I have seen the class
android.webkit.SslErrorHandler, but I'm not sure how could I use it. I
think it could be useful if I were using a WebView within my
application, but it seems wrong to force the user to use an embedded,
limited browser inside my application just to be able to log in into a
secure site when it could be using the full-fledged Android one.

Many thanks in advance for any advice,

Jose Luis.
