It would allow a server to announce its preferred trusted CAs (fulfilling R-EXISTING) *AND* its willingness to accept "auto-issued" certificates. An EE having (genuine) certificates from CA-1 and CA-2 would select among these two per server expressed preferences. I guess you see the point.


Yes, this seems to me to be of relatively modest value. In any
case, this is a feature which could easily be added at some point
in the future if such a fake CA ever existed.

There is now a draft, i.e. draft-moreau-pkix-aixcm-00.txt

Don't forget that the fake CA does not exist, it is just a standardized distinguished name for indicating a (breached, explicit meaningless, fake) public domain private signature key. Accordingly, the SIP wg could standardize its "own" distinguished name to indicate its "own" public domain private signature key.
