Even if that works out, you're at best duplicating a system that is already in place with domain names. And it does not necessarily lead to simpler UI. E.g. Apple now simply shows the Organization in the address bar, but with that mozilla.org and bugzilla.mozilla.org appear identical, while they actually have different security characteristics as far as the end user is concerned. Perhaps that would argue for showing both the Organization and the domain name as most other browsers appear to be doing, but that makes the UI is more complicated to grasp compared to DV or lacking TLS altogether. -- https://annevankesteren.nl/ _______________________________________________ dev-security-policy mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-security-policy
