I didn't mean to imply that we would ship all CAs as disabled by default
-- i agree that would probably be unhelpful.  i just meant that the
decision about "not including CAcert.org" doesn't need to be a binary
decision -- instead of dropping it, we could ship the certificate, but
have it disabled by default, while leaving the others alone.
