How do you distinguish between eg EV SSL versus non-EV?

That may indeed be a problem. Could use an out-of-browser gui, or possibly configure your browser to trust your own CA as a CA capable of EV somehow, and stick your own EV id in the generated certificate. I dont think this is configurable in most common browsers at the moment, though.
