Thanks, Alberto.

I am filing a bug upstream about this, and I intend to submit a patch
soon.

I'm seeing "Probably Okay" in both the latest Firefox and in Midori (webkit1/gtk2, libsoup 2.52.2, gnutls 3.4.8 on Arch Linux), but with a much longer list of ciphers for Midori:

TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

Compared to these for Firefox:

TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA

TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA
TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA
TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA
TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA

Where can one go to learn which ciphers are insecure and why?
