           Summary: Server trust authentication challenges aren’t sent to
                    the navigation delegate
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit2
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: mitz at webkit.org
                CC: ap at webkit.org


Server trust authentication challenges are short-circuited and not passed through to -webView:didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge:completionHandler:.

This was done because the delegate would need to respond with an NSURLCredential that contains a trust, and WebCore::Credential can’t represent such credentials. This can be resolved by making Credential have an NSURLCredential (and removing the special case for identity credentials), similarly to how ProtectionSpace now has an NSURLProtectionSpace.

CredentialStorage may also require some changes to support server trust credentials (which have session persistence).
