I would propose that there be a way to display the name & branding of the signing CA in the chrome when accessing a secure site

Mozilla has had this for years. There's even special-case code for Verisign.


Mouse over the lock icon sometime.

Sorry, when I said "in the chrome", I meant something that would actually be visible to users; anyone who knows enough to mouse over the icon and care about a tooltip also knows enough to open the trust dialog and ponder the contents.


If you want to leverage CA competition, you have to offer them actual branding space: at least a name and possibly a logo which is visible next to the lock icon.
