Comment #25 on issue 2010 by unknown.unit: Feature: An option to disable  
the 'Expired Certificate" warning for a specific site
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=2010

"definitely not going to go with a checkbox on the interstitial page, as I  
think it's
too easy for people who have no clue to just get check-happy"

I can agree with this.  Too many people will just say "yes" - I guess this  
is why
Mozilla made their "checkbox" option so complex and tedious.

I would be happy with an area in the options where I can add a list of  
sites on which
to just accept the certificate even if it is expired/invalid/self-generated.
Somewhere I can just type/paste in site addresses but which I have to access
intentionally separate from the general browsing process.

For my purposes, this could even be limited to sites which run on a local  
IP range -
i.e. 127.x.x.x, 10.x.x.x, and I can't remember the other internal range  
right now,
192.x.x.x? (the first two are the ones I personally use, mostly the 10  
range for my
development sites, and 127.0.0.1 for anything to which I don't assign a  
specific
internal address.)  Though I guess that probably won't be enough to make  
everyone
happy, so maybe not limit it like this.

I really don't mind it being a bit of effort to manually add sites to a  
user defined
list.

Personally I find Firefox's approach to be clumsy and awkward anyway (just  
how many
clicks is it now to permanently add an exception?,) and feel this would be  
no worse,
and easier to set up in advance.
