The current thought is to use SQLite. This removes the need for any central server, or the use of IPC to talk to it. The NSS team has a prototype.
an IPC daemon module and invent a protocol to communicate with it. This  
protocol would not need to be specific to certificates or NSS.

to be thread-safe since NSS may query its databases on any thread and in
particular from the socket transport thread.
