The similar happens but with a larger number of boxes, when authenticating with
certificates stored in Windows with either:

* more than 1 matching certificate
* using strong protection for the certificate

Would it be possible to use a caching for certificates and user credentials? The
caching timeout would be defined in options with default, say, 60 minutes.
