I'd love a government root certificate personally.

It would make it blatantly obvious whenever they wanted to use it. You could also probably sniff it out and block traffic using it even if you couldn't remove it from your device.

A root certificate would only help them if the application used it as part of its encryption processes - whilst a device root certificate is available to applications, they're not forced to use it.
