User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:51.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/51.0
Build ID: 20170125094131

Steps to reproduce:

Have two webpages with self signed certificates, the first is the website you browse to, second is referenced by the first since the other certificate wasn't imported when adding the exception it prompted again for invalid certificate.


Actual results:

When the first exception was added the second certificate error popped up when the page was reloaded, this time it was not allowed to give an exception.


Expected results:

The second certificate should have the first result as the first even though it is not matching the URL in the browser bar, it should still allow the exception to be added without having to manually export and import the certificate in order to work.
