Comment:

 We talked a bit at CCC about this idea and I think we came to the
 conclusion to

 1) Collect some data how prevalent that problem is
 2) Try to reach the web site authors to fix that problem on their end

 That's the way forward I hope as keeping track of new intermediate CAs to
 and/or to remove from the cache is no fun thing to do.

 If the plan above does not help and the problem is quite widespread, let's
 reopen this ticket and let's think harder about the idea as a Tor Browser
 feature.
