I think read-multiple-choice is intentionally programmed to implement
a modal dialog.  That's why "C-x o" is disallowed.

Once again, I think a special command for getting the cert info is the
best solution to your problem: it is relatively simple, it is
unintrusive, and it doesn't affect functionalities unrelated to that
particular problem.  By contrast, making significant changes in rmc.el
just to cater to this use case sounds wrong to me.
