Yes, that's a partial solution, for those clued enough to understand it...

Several of the CA's do similar things.  And they're usually nice enough to
use separate root certs for the various classes - so if you feel so inclined,
keep their 'We sign high-assurance certs" CA listed, and heave the "the 
verification
e-mail didn't bounce" CA over the side. ;)
