Even by going "creative", you won't be able to create 10 sided dice... it's a mathematical impossibility as there are only five possible convex regular polyhedra, and none of them have 10 sides.
The way a D10 is usually made is by using a 20-sided Icosahedron, and have each number occur twice (i.e. there will be 2 faces labeled 3).
He has basically invented a scenario I've never seen anyone have trouble with.
I did take getting used to it. I remember, I had the same issue (accidental scrolling when trying to middle click) the first couple of days that I used a scroll-wheel mouse.
Ok, so for me this was only an issue while getting used to it, but I can imagine that other people might indeed have some (longer lasting...) motor skill issues with this. However, theoretically, it should be possible to configure X to ignore scroll events, solving this issue?

No, anytime we criminalize possession of mere pictures, and attach disproportionate punishment to it, democracy suffers.

Huh. I didn't know that, as I only have ever done the individual verification. It's not uncommon for someone to wear many hats (i.e., to be affiliated with several organizations). It'd certainly be nice if their system allowed for a single individual account to switch between different "identities", so that one could issue certs for themselves or any number of organizations with which they're affiliated and which they've validated with StartSSL.
Indeed...
Have you suggested such an improvement to them?
Yes, of course. They wouldn't budge. Their suggestion: just use the "free" plan instead, there you can wear as many hats as you like (which I did... after this incident they never saw another cent from me). Weird way of promoting your business...
And that's another issue: they don't take any suggestions! For example: some (all?) of their automated mails are formatted as a single long line. I suggested to them that general usage is to stay below 78 characters per line. Should be easy to fix, as they probably use some kind of
Technically, yes, but policy-wise, no: Class 1 certs are not intended for commercial use.
Well, it's not commercial use, it's for several non-profits and one political party.
As you suspected, the $9 offering from PositiveSSL is for a single, non-wildcard, non-SAN certificate.
Yeah, that's the kind of certificate that you can for free from StartSSL (class 1)
NameCheap also sells Comodo PositiveSSL multi-domain certs [namecheap.com] for $30/year for up to 100 domains, which is quite a reasonable price.
Yeah, that would be reasonable. Can these domains be wildcard, or does each domain only have a single host?
Wildcard certs are also available [namecheap.com], with Comodo wildcards costing $94/year.
Interesting...
Yeah. Beer in Switzerland isn't cheap.
I know. So expensive that people cannot even afford mustard to put on their sausage along with it
Well actually, if you are going to be killed by a terrorist at some point during the day, you would have to wake up alive first.
The terrorist could conceivably kill you in your sleep, with a single shot at your head through your pillow...
