#. Better error reporting. Most certutil errors provide no detail. Mistakes with command-line
options just print a usage message.
#. Improve certificate listings. Allow for sorting by name and trust. Sorting by trust will
return CA certs first.
#. Allow listing and lookup of keys by index and nickname.
#. Improve coherence of key and certificate nicknames.
#. Remove keys "stranded" without a certificate (except for the imminent (????) encryption key
for password files).
#. Support importing keys from a file.
#. Improve hardware token support.
#. (bugfix) Some certificate extensions cause certutil to crash.
#. (bugfix) Certificate entries require a serial number; one should be generated automatically if
not provided.
#. (bugfix) Null password is given to new ``key3.db``; should prompt user for an initial
password.
#. (bugfix) Listing provate keys does not work: requires password authentication.
#. (bugfix) Listing certificate extensions has typos and does not provide much information.
