The important issue is not who Mozilla trusts, but who the user trusts.
The issue also doesn't solely apply to the class 1 root certificate but also to 
the class 3 server certificate used by mail servers.

There are a substantial set of users who use (often their own) mail
servers that use certificates signed by CAcert class 3 certificate.

Any application should have easy was to add a CA which the user trusts,
totally independent of the situation wrt CAcert, which is also a reason
why I do not believe that reopening this particular bug is the right
thing to do.

The correct thing would be to request an easy way for a user to manage
her CA's for her applications.
