The "industry specification" looks more about behavioral aspects
rather than UI design metaphors, right?<br>

Thanks,<br>

No!<br>

You want a widely accepted industry specification,<br>
and this is exactly what the CA/B Forum exists for.<br>
<br>
If you look at the RSS Convention, it was done in<br>
1968. There appear to be only a few dozen signatories<br>
with many notable omissions. Similarly, few nations<br>
even participate in the related body.<br>
<br>
For a browser security indicator, you couldn't even<br>
begin to get Nation States to discuss a subject <br>
that plainly is not properly a subject of public<br>
international law.<br>
<br>
The Forum should be pursuing and evangelizing <br>
its own work here rather than fantasizing over<br>
treaties.<br>
