Thanks, @geoff-nixon

I don't know any solutions that work within a browser to customize the certificate verifications. I think you have to resort to server-side handling.

Hmm, theoretically it might be possible to write a browser extension that would hook into the cert verifying process - not sure if the browsers allow that though, least because of security issues.
