<Googles for x509>  Ah.  That appears to be true.  In that 
case, do you agree that the following is still wrong (taken from 
urllib.URLOpener docs)? 
 
Additional keyword parameters, collected in x509, are used for 
authentication with the https: scheme. The keywords key_file 
and cert_file are supported; both are needed to actually 
retrieve a resource at an https: URL. 
 
 
You don't need either dict entry for opening most https: URLs.  
Also, it gives no clue that x509 is for client authentication, and 
that server authentication is not done.
