Sorry for jumping in so late.

Some CAs claim copyright (or trademark rights, or whatever) on their
*root* certificates, and license them in rather obnoxious ways (for
example, require certain user behavior which has privacy
implications).  I believe that this is a significant problem, even if
the license terms turn out to be unenforceable in most jurisdictions.

After reading such a CA "license", the next question pops up: Are CAs
which explicitly disclaim responsibility for the certificates they
issue acceptable for inclusion?
