Seems like a reasonable thing to do.

That won't translate well.  It needs to be:

isServer ?
_("The certificate %s basic constraints show a CA, but we need one for a

_("The certificate %s basic constraints show a CA, but we need one for a
client") , certFile

Another one.

Another one.

two more.

ACK with translation string nits fixed.
