Hm, it seems to be unimplemented. ssl-accept-ca-certificate prompts
the user, but it isn't called from anywhere.
Do you need to be prompted? Simply installing your CA so that OpenSSL
finds it should be enough, I think. With "reject on fail", you can't
login unless the server certificate verifies correctly, so it is
almost like a prompt. :-)
