As I mentioned before, I also want to create certificate store based on 
NSS certificate database handler, which will enable us use NSS other 
features, such as LDAP, OCSP, and various CRLs. And another is I want to 
create symmetric keys with crypto devices mechanism instead from a 
random generator, although it work well. And I also want to provide a 
more common key manager based on slot and certificate database. If you 
accept my ideas, I think some interfaces will be added, and some 
interfaces will be modified. I'll try my best to finish the work as soon 
as possible. Because I must talk every details with you all, I'am not 
sure how long( I think my project may be the most horried project, I 
have to finish all the features before September). So every think depend 
on your decision.
