Personal certificates autentication

more options

Hi staff, my problem is about personal certificates and their use in official website.

Although modifying security.remember_cert_checkbox_default_setting to false prevents it from remembering the certificate used on that page after closing the browser, in some cases it causes the browser to ask me for the certificate several times in a row until the authentication on the web is completed. Keep in mind that if it is unchecked, it will not remember the certificate between sessions or throughout the current session. The latter is very important.

For me, the solution would be an option that distinguished between "remember authentication decisions only in the current session" (which would be as it was before and how it works in other browsers) and "remember authentication decisions between sessions". I do not understand how this drastic change has been implemented with the use of digital certificates without offering an alternative to leaving it as it was before, which, as I say, is precisely how the rest of the browsers work.

Could you please let us know if you have considered this option is futures updatings? I would be very interetings so as to not chaging to another browser such as chrome or edge. Please could you provide a honestly answer?
