Can the warning be closed? My assumption was that it's persistent.

I agree the warning isn't as specific or actionable as perhaps it would be ideally, but seeing as the browser has no idea why the SSL keys are being logged (it could just be for debugging purposes) or how to fix it without breaking things further, I'm not sure what more it could say.

Yeh, I acknowledge it's a difficult problem to solve, but I think if you have messaging at all, it should probably be a lot clearer, and link to some kind of article explaining the situation (which could cover the legitimate use cases such as anti-virus usage etc.)
