Comment (by cypherpunks3):

 That "one-line place" no longer exists since https everywhere deleted
 their legacy extension code and became a pure WebExtension in 2017.

 The 'cacert' pseudo-platform was also removed:

 https://www.eff.org/files/Changelog.txt
 {{{
 2018.3.13
   * The unused `cacert` platform was removed from rulesets for simplicity
   * Organizing the add-on files into a clean directory structure
   * Ruleset updates
 }}}

 And the need for CAcert as a CA seems a lot less than it was in 2011 when
 this ticket was filed, now that Let's Encrypt exists. Can this be closed?
