It is not feasible to add options if requests is being called from another package. In that case adding certificates to the cacert bundle is the straight path, e.g. I had to add "StartCom Class 1 Primary Intermediate Server CA", for which I downloaded the root cert into StartComClass1.pem. given my virtualenv is named caldav, I added the certificate with:

cat StartComClass1.pem >> .virtualenvs/caldav/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pip/_vendor/requests/cacert.pem
cat temp/StartComClass1.pem >> .virtualenvs/caldav/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/cacert.pem

one of those might be enough, I did not check
