  * export_certificate(filename?)
  * gboolean check_signature(Certificate * certificate, Certificate * signer) - returns whether one certificate is signed by another
- * (some_tuple_list_type) get_verification_data() - returns a list of key-value pairs containing things to show to the user to check the certificate's validity. It's not ''strictly'' key-value due to i18n concerns, but here is an example: [ ("fpr_sha1","0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef",_("SHA1 Fingerprint")), ("common_name","gmail.com",_("Common Name")), NULL ]
  * char * get_unique_id - returns a string (probably something involving a key fingerprint) that can usefully be used to uniquely identify this certificate (for storage purposes)
- * char * get_signer_unique_id - returns a unique identifier for the key used to sign the certificate
+ * char * get_issuer_unique_id - returns a unique identifier for the key used to sign the certificate
  * destroy_certificate(Certificate * crt) - when a certificate's life has reached its end, call this to get rid of it. Will execute free(crt) for you.
+ * get_fingerprint_sha1
+ * get_certificate_subject(crt) - retrieves a string representing "who the certificate is for". For SSL X.509 certs, this would be the domain name (NOT fully qualified - no dot at the end! BEWARE!)
