    Package: w3m Version: 0.1.10+0.1.11pre+kokb22-1 Severity: wishlist

    When I'm about to submit sensitive information over a https connection, I would like to inspect the information in the server's SSL certificate, and ideally also the chain of trust that was used to verify that certificate. w3m doesn't seem to have a way to do this.

    Verifying this information would give me a lot more confidence in the security of a link.
