Please consider adding a key length (in bits) property to the SecurityInfo object. The Firefox UI provides this information (see attached screenshot), but it is currently not possible to get from a web extension.

Internally in Firefox it looks like this property is called secretKeyLength (see here).

This addition to the api would be fine. It currently doesn't fit into our schedule.

There's a r+ patch which didn't land and no activity in this bug for 2 weeks.
:gregp, could you have a look please?
If you still have some work to do, you can add an action "Plan Changes" in Phabricator.
For more information, please visit auto_nag documentation.

Thank you Gregory for adding this property! I will definitely be using it in the next version of my Server Status add-on (see screenshot).
