[Bug 284964] [NEW] Extended validation SSL certificates do not show "green" in URL bar

[Wolfgang]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Since Firefox 3 extended validation SSL certificates (e.g. from
Verisign) should show with a green URL bar and information about the
owner of the domain.

This feature seems not to work, or not to be active in Ubuntu. I tested
several sites with EV certificates, like https://www.paypal.com/ while
they show up with a green URL bar and site owner in Firefox-3 on
Windows/Mac or even in IE7, they do not in Firefox on Ubuntu.

I add two screenshots
- FF3 in Windows XP
- FF3 in Ubuntu 8.10

Version Information:
noone at nowhere:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description:	Ubuntu intrepid (development branch)
Release:	8.10

Source: firefox-3.0
Version: 3.0.3+nobinonly-0ubuntu1
