The situation is still the same (tested on openSUSE Tumbleweed 20160625). I use KDE Plasma 5.6.4 and KDE Frameworks 5.23.0.

systemsettings (KDE 4, package kdebase4-workspace-addons) has a SSL configuration, but it does not add the Cacert.org root certificates (https://wiki.cacert.org/FAQ/ImportRootCert#KDE). systemsettings5 has no SSL section.

Yes, I agree. Strong authentication (e.g. with SSL client certificates and smart cards) becomes more and more important.
