I understand, that is the reason i wrote "If ..." ;-). What about
Server/Site certificates and CA certificates?, i am not sure to label
them as personal data

Currently the only idea that is floating in my mind is related to the
layout of the UI if the certificate manager is integrated with PDM, and
the better way to solve it is to modify the pdm glade file and look at
it.

This weekend i will do two things:
  - Generate the certificates that i offered (for use cases testing)
  - I will try to design a pdm dialog with certificate manager
integrated, this will clear my mind about how this will look
