If I'm understanding you correctly, then we already have such a
strategy. Admins modify files in /etc/pki/ca-trust and run
update-ca-trust (is that the sync you're talking about) which makes sure
all the legacy loaders of the certificates bundles get updated.

This proposal simply adds a tool so that admins don't have to diddle
files directly (although that is still supported).

Cheers,
