Yep, 
For the right amount of money and you fill out a form
in sucha way to give confidence that you can support being a rootCA
then you to can be "bundled" with the next release
I think its like $50,000 for the premium package - per year?
Such information is not easily found on the public web sites

The terminology in the industry I believe is to become a bundled root CA

Remember their are other software browsers, but I would guess most of them
just copy the list that netscape uses rather than going through some
verificcation process to select rootCAs for the software.
