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.


There a IETF/PKIX draft for including such extensions inside CA certificates.

Do you suggest the way to do that should be support for this draft ?


No, IMHO, better to identify the CA, and then look
for the locally stored, Mozilla-derived package of
branding materials for that CA.  There is no need
to extend the Cert.  Mozilla would want to install
with a little package of materials, indexed of the
CA or the cert.  It would be the Foundation's role
to prepare that package, which should be easy, as
the CA will do most of the work.
