So the typical laptop owner could never fill this field in correctly.

Indeed, for the typical laptop owner, there should be some setting in
/etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf:
dc_typical_laptop_owner='take care of all that certificate stuff for me and dont put warnings in mainlog'

That way he could focus on real warnings, and not warnings about things
he could never fix even if he wanted.
