yes, it is exactly the same!

currently not. But it should be straightforward to implement it, it seems 
to me. Probably implementing a new contructor GlobusProxy( File ) or 
similar. All the required info is available. (But you would need to load 
the CA certificates from the web of from the local copies 
in /etc/grid-security/certificates  anyway)
Mathias will for sure have some extra opinions ;-)

BTW: you can gladly submit a request via bugzilla.

Cheers, Ariel
