sounds like you've never needed to diagnose a broken cert before..

all of this nannying for the common good and breaking functionality is not always a good thing. provide sensible defaults and give the user control to override it as they see fit (like the continue button)

I agree with you, but the continue button does seem too easy. I'd make this an about:config type setting.
