Browsers are capable of coordinating independent of the CAB Forum.
However, some browsers are concerned about doing so (for legal reasons,
I believe) and so the level of coordination is limited.

But actually, I think this is a feature. Root stores are a decision
about who to trust. It is entirely reasonable for different people to
have different views on a person or organization's trustworthiness.
