Comment (by mcs):

 Some of the existing Firefox prefs that we can use are:

 app.update.cert.requireBuiltIn
 app.update.cert.checkAttributes
 app.update.certs.1.issuerName
 app.update.certs.1.commonName

 We should be able to add as many attributes as we want under
 app.update.certs.1. (but brade and I have only tested with issuerName and
 commonName which are the ones that Mozilla uses).

 See:
 prefs: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-
 esr24/source/browser/app/profile/firefox.js#92

 update manifest onLoad handler: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-
 esr24/source/toolkit/mozapps/update/nsUpdateService.js#3370

 checkCert from CertUtils.jsm: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-
 esr24/source/toolkit/modules/CertUtils.jsm#119

 gk -- Do you think these existing mechanisms provide enough flexibility
 for TBB?
 (brade and I think they do)
