            Bug ID: 127909
           Summary: Certificate path dialog doesn't show all profiles and
                    selects wrong one
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: glogow at fbihome.de

Description:
This is somewhat of an extension of bug 125553. The dialog has multiple UI
problems / bugs, which makes debugging other certificate based bugs even
harder:

* It doesn't reflect the currently selected path correctly and always selects
the first entry on open. This does not only affect the row selector, but also
the radio item. This really had me wondering what's going on, when I needed to
switch the profile. 
* The "Add" button is IMHO wrongly named. "Instead" of adding an entry to the
list, it allows the user to manually select a directory, which contains the NSS
certificate databases. This is represented as the "Manual" entry in the list,
so its not named that wrong. But you can't have multiple entries and normally
there also should be some "Remove" action complementing the "Add", which isn't
needed in this case.
* It doesn't show all Mozilla profiles, just existing default ones.

As an additional minor nuisance, LO doesn't keep the manual selection, if the
user selects a Mozilla profile. IMHO LO should offer the last manual selection
at least while it's running for ease of usage. Better would be to store the
value in some variable, independent of the real user selection.



Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open "Tools" -> "Options..." -> "Security" -> "Certificate"
2. Select a non-first profile or add a manual one
3. Observe the various problems from the description. 

Actual Results:
The bugs in the description are observable.

Expected Results:
None of the described bugs happen.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
