So it happened, per recent discussion on this list, it seems that at least one CA *has* been issuing sub-CA certs for corporate use in mitm boxes. http://www.infoworld.com/d/security/trustwave-admits-issuing-man-in-the-midd... mozilla is threatening to remove the CA from their browser. Trustwave says they have/will revoke all these sub-CAs and will not issue any more. They also claim in their defense that other CAs are doing this.
