Why not put the rest of the certificate information there as well... And
Ian's log request... The argument of chrome space can't apply to a
pop-up... Same pop-up should be shown on any mouse overs of the padlock
in the URL bar too and what if a javascript hides both and uses a fake
bar to make it look like an encrypted connection (already a verified in
the wild threat)...

For starters how about subjectAltNames, which can't even be seen in
human readable form at all via mozilla software...
