I will investigate this. Maybe I can add the dialog manually for websites requesting such authentication.


is it possible to change the icon? i don't like it so much
I like it. So it stays.
Of couse you can manually create a new icon and replace the old one if you have developer mode on.


I was running the check that Steve Gibson has put on to verify that a web browser refuses to connect in https if the certificate has been revoked (simply connect to https://revoked.grc.com, and check that you get an error from the browser) and while the default Jolla browser behaves correctly, Webcat doesn't:
This is interesting. Thanks for pointing that out.
Now I am researching on how to make the test work. Hopefully I can come up with a patch.
