Comment (by mcs):

 Kathy and I have been exploring whether we can use Mozilla's notifications
 module (`toolkit/modules/PopupNotifications.jsm`) to implement the onion
 services authentication prompt. This would produce a doorhanger and would
 look a lot like the password manager's prompts. Here is a mockup:

 [[Image(https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/raw-
 attachment/ticket/30237/client-auth-notification-mockup-1.png, 646px)]]

 Antonela, Georg, and others: do you think this is an acceptable approach?

 A side note: if it is important, we can move the "Learn more…" link up
 near "Onion Authentication"; we get it "for free" in the location shown
 because that is how Mozilla positions it within their other prompts.
