Does the FireFox Client Customization Kit (CCK) do what you want?
It creates a customized installer, which installs a version of FF that
will have numerous customizations that you specify.  These
customizations will affect new profiles created by the installed version.

You can add root CA certs in that customization.  However there are
some legal/redistribution issues you must consider if you do that.
(In fact, these issues are not tied to the CCK, but to FireFox itself.
If you change the set of root CA certs, then you have to be careful
that your customized product is identified as something other than the
generic FireFox.)
