 Webpositive should check if a TLS/SSL certficate has been revoked. It
 would be good if there was a drop down option to select between "hard
 fail", "soft fail" and "disabled". Those being:

 '''hard fail:''' if CRL/OCSP list is down it'll assmue it's revoked.
 '''soft fail:''' if the CLR/OSCP list is down then it'll trust it.
 '''disabled:''' No certificate revocation checking will occur.

 I think that hard fail should be the default as it's the safest option and
 from my experiance the CRL/OSCP lists rarely are unavailable.
