 > cURL needs to be given the same cacert for consistency.
 It does.

 > The cacert path isn't changeable via the options passed into WP HTTP.
 For people using self-signed certificates or non-standard stacks (e.g.
 intranets), this should be possible.
 This did cross my mind as well, however, my primary motivation here was to
 get it in a state that we could verify SSL certs from Root CA's, not even
 taking into account non-root-signed certs, which we can look at once we
 have the core stack working 100%
