I couldn't find the reference off hand in your postings Frank but a thought occurred to me that rather then removing CAs immediately, make a small code change to reject any certificates issued by a CA after a certain date if they were found to be in breach of any policies, MF or otherwise.

The idea is you don't want to inconvenience any mozilla users with existing certificates, but what about putting CAs on notice that until XYZ criteria is rectified, they will be unable to issue further certificates until the situation is rectified.

Possibly a few flaws in this idea I haven't considered, but could be a purgatory before complete removal, or just deny any future certificates...
