OK, combining this thread with Duane's comment
about the mouse-over:

<bug?>

If I go to website Bravo that is using Certificate Alpha,
browsers will pop up a dialog grumbling about the
mismatch.  I click on OK for whatever reason.  All
standard stuff.

The status bar now says Bravo.  (This thread was
about whether that was correct or not.)

New part:

The mouse-over says "Signed by ThisCA."

That sounds incorrect to me.  Bravo is definately
not signed by ThisCA.  Even if I clicked on the OK
button, Bravo is still not signed by ThisCA.  If I've
clicked on the OK button, the mouse-over might
say "Because you clicked OK" but to state that
ThisCA has signed anything like Bravo without
the presence of a Brava cert seems incorrect.

(I just checked this ... in a Linux Firefox 1.0, the
only one I have available to me.)
