Approved to show a dialog. However, please differ between self-
signed/low trust certificates and mismatches. In the former case, a mild
warning dialog is sufficient, but if SSL certificate validation fails
because of a mismatch (e. g. server name changed) you should outright
abort the operation and show an error; that's the very situation SSL is
supposed to protect from, so asking the user to "do it anyway?" sounds
dangerous. Unless I misunderstood what you meant with "mismatch"?
