Safari doesn't support X.509 client certificates...

[illumin8]

I really like Safari... It's fast and seems to work well on most websites. The only problem I have is that my work uses X.509 client certificates to authenticate with their secure intranet, and Safari doesn't support them. Does anyone know if there's a 3rd party plugin or some way to enable this support? I added the X.509 certificate into my keychain just fine, but I did a little googling and found that it just isn't supported. This is dissapointing, to say the least, because every other major browser supports it.

Send feedback to Apple, something like: Safari does not currently support the X.509 personal certificates that
MIT uses for authentication with various web services (SAPweb, WebSIS,
etc). Could you please add support for this under Safari? Thank you.
