Web Security Context: User Interface Guidelines feedback (REC-wsc-ui-20100812)

Hi,

Good to see work on defining the UI requirements for SSL and TLS.
I notice in section 8.7 you identify some of the dynamic issues
that may change the security properties of a site, such as using
javascript. Unfortunately you've omitted one major one which is
possibility of renegotiation of the SSL/TLS connection itself.
This can significantly change the security properties of the
connection and needs to be considered too.

Regards

Rich.
