The answer is: STOP distributing our own certificates. Rely on Qt's support,
which also doesn't distribute certificates. The burden then falls on the system
integrator (the distros), which will select a root CA package that they feel
confident about.
They're also the ones who can roll out security updates directly to the users.
We can't.
