Bug Description

Binary package hint: libreoffice

When trying to add a wiki publisher target, the authentication fails with this error:
 "The certificate of the selected site is unknown"

Steps to reproduce:
1) Install the libreoffice-wiki-publisher package
2) Go to Tools > Options > Internet > MediaWiki
3) Click "Add", fill the information (I tested this with my Document Foundation wiki credentials):
URL: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org
4) The error appears, no option is given to bypass it or import the certificate

It also seems this feature is broken even if I would get past the certificate error, as reported in Debian:
