Indeed, it seemed to accept the certificate of your school permanently.
So it seems Konqueror makes a difference between certificates that do
not match the domain name and self-signed certificates.

I still think this is a bug. If you disagree, could you tell me what
Konqueror should do after it has offered to accept the certificate
forever? If not accept it forever, it should not even offer to do that
(and thus require an extra click). If it deems name-mismatched
certificates too insecure to be accepted forever, maybe it should not
accept them at all, or at least say "name mismatch, only accepting for
this session" instead of requiring the user to choose between options
that will not be honored anyway.

For me this bug is one of the only reasons I have not retired Firefox
yet and gone 100% konqueror.
