I don't find another way to define the Certificates Manager UI (maybe
I'm used to use it that another UI layout make me feel uncomfortable),
so any other ideas are welcomed

If the integration with PDM is the steps that we choose to make, at

(X509CertsManager and others) will need more work but not too hard
