Does TLS/SSL protocol provide enough information to conclude that alert
should be interpreted as "bad certificate" message from other side?
Does it provide any granularity on this badness, such as time window,
signature, algorithms and so on?

As far as I understand from reading traffic captures, there are no text
fields in TLS/SSL alert messages. It looks like severe design flaw
of this protocol, leading to problems in diagnostic on both sides.
