Makes you wonder what actually happened with TrustWave (there's obviously more to it than "Oh, this was an ethical dilemma so we stopped."). Probably their customer found a way into the intermediate CA private key and was being naughty with it.

What I think sparked Mozilla is TrustWave's claim that this kind of thing is widespread and commonplace among CA's. That's shouldn't surprise anyone, though.
