There is another experimental feature rolled out in openSUSE to make controlling the system wide cert store easier. But it's neither really documented clearly nor fully tested. I always wanted to do that but there are always other things to do. If people are interested I can send over the initial document how to work with it and it could be completed and tested along the way Dunno about people, but I'd like to know more. :-)

The documentation around the whole area of certificate management is *DREADFUL* and *LACKING*. Please contribute anything you have, however fragmentary, to the interwebz.
Certificate deployment & management is an administrative nightmware. Various applications and even development environments each hoe-their-own-row. And the tool chain is almost non-existent. Applications like TinyCA and Gnomint just languish.
^--- two profoundly true statements! +1
While that thread is not about general CA/PKI management.
I'll stay in the loop and contribute where I can. Thanks for the offer, Wolfgang ... and for participating in this thread, everybody else! <thumbs up!>
For people wanting to check out that experimental feature of Firefox & Co please check out https://etherpad.mozilla.org/6MgiXK43uH . Feel free to contribute to that document if you miss stuff or something is not clear or not working as described. Please keep it clean and focused though. Once people confirm that it's useful and appears to work we can put that up onto some wiki.
