This would require significant extra work in Firefox. NSS (underlying 
crypto library) only implements NIST hash functions [0]. I can't speak 
for NSS module peers but... patches welcome?

This example is using sha1, which it says is the only algorithm Chrome supports at the moment. Do we want to spec the supported algorithms for 1.1?
