When I view a HTTPS-page with no usable certificate, I get a message like
the following:

Your connection may be insecure!

A problem occurred while loading the URL https://[...]

Unacceptable TLS certificate: The certificate does not match the expected identity of the site that it was retrieved from. The certificate has expired.

In the typical case when that happens, I want to find out what is wrong in
more detail. Including a link to a summary of the certificate data would be
very helpful.

I agree that UI could do with some improvement, and there's the
upstream bug https://github.com/luakit/luakit/issues/934 that has a
fairly similar drift.  I won't hold my breath for someone to actually
address it, though.
