Secure connection warning
The damn "this connection is not secure" continually gets in the way of entering information especially passwords. Find a better place to display it for internal devices at the very least. It is no use excluding IP addresses because in my test environment they often change

Do you mean the warning that Firefox shows if you use a password field on an insecure HTTP website?
Firefox 51+ will mark HTTP connections with a padlock with a strike through and shows "Connection is Not Secure" if you click the Control Center 'i' button at the left end of the location/address bar.
Note that this message is meant as a warning that you could be vulnerable and that it shouldn't prevent (block) you from accessing the website.
You can press the ESC key to close a doorhanger with a warning message in the name and password field.
