Sigh. I blame this as much on the browser.  There's no inherent reason
why a connection to a site secured with a self-signed certificate is
insecure.  In fact it's definitely not.  Browsers need a better way to
deal with self-signed certs, but I think they'd rather we all just pay
up to the cert authorities and buy some false sense of security.

Personally I created my own CA with the wonderful xca program, and sign
all my certs with that.  If a person adds my CA certificate to their
browser, then my sites are trusted (and verified).  But for a public web
page this isn't very automatic.
