Actually, since the binding between RID and a PKI is better defined in 
rfc6045-bis, 6046-bis now refers to it, as follows:

    Each RID system SHOULD authenticate its peers via a PKI as detailed
    in Section 9.3 of [I-D.ietf-mile-rfc6045-bis].

Would this address the concern?
Let me check.
So the text in rfc6045bis seems to suggest that all server certificates will be 
verified based on some prior arrangement. Is my understanding correct?
Yes; in essence, a RID consortium is "closed".
I think that this approach is unwise, because this wouldn't scale. But if nobody else see a problem with this, I will let it go.
