FBI drives for encryption backdoors

I wonder what implications this could have for PKI systems. Forcing OS vendors to include trusted FBI CA certificate to enable forging SSL certificates on the fly would seem like a logical thing to do... if it's not being done already.

Considering that vendors already include Chinese government CAs voluntarily, I don't think they'll have to be forced into much.
