I'm attaching a quick mock-up of what I think a useful and
non-intrusive petname interaction could look like, based on the FF3
user experience. It's far from perfect at this point, but I'd think
it's a useful starting point.
Incidentally, the black on blue ercim.org comes from
browser.identity.ssl_domain_display.
