It would be nice if httpie used the ssl configuration already present on the system.

One can pass a filesystempath as verify parameter to requests.request() (used in httpie/core.py:73)
This is then used to check certificates.
There is the function requests.utils.get_os_ca_bundle() which returns a suitable path (at least on UNIX)

It looks like Requests defaults to the bundle that comes with certify, when it is installed (which is by default).

It's not optimal, but for now you should be able to overwrite it by setting the environment variable REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE with the path of the system one.
