IMHO, the CAA algorithm is bad because it crosses administrative

for instance, AFNIC to put a CAA record in .fr which will apply to all
.fr domains which do not have an explicit CAA. It seems bad.

I don't see why, since it only acts as a default. Any registrant that cares which CA they use can publish their own CAA. If the registrants object, that's between them and Afnic.

Over in DMARC land we have a proposal called PSD which specifically sets a default policy for the whole TLD, since .BANK and .INSURANCE want to do that for their registrants.
