Rob,

Does _anyone_ care about IETF standards when it comes to UI?

Has IETF ever actually published any standards relating to web browser UI?
rejecting a cert, as the doc in question has previously mandated (as recently as the -05 version), is not just a UI issue, IMHO. It's protocol behavior and, as I noted last year, it's
protocol behavior that requires a plan to deal with incremental deployment.

Less severe forms of discrimination against certs not accompanied by an SCT may fall under the browser UI heading, and that they are not subject to IETF standardization.
Let me just note that CABForum has no influence over Chrome's UI either, so please don't feel that IETF is being ignored any more than any other standards organization. ;-)
I'm quite willing to believe that Google believes it decisions are not subject to
influence by any standards body, country, etc. ;-)
