But this doesn't seem to work if you try to register a client-cert credential instead — the delegate gets called anyway.
The credential store is a red herring; it only applies to user name and password based credentials, not client identities. See the discussion of <rdar://problem/7492576> in the AdvancedURLConnections sample code.

Also, be aware that the identity preference mechanism described by Ken is for Mac OS X only; iOS doesn't have this facility and you always have to deal with delegate callbacks.
