In Firefox on Android, how do I untrust the corrupt Blue Coat CA certificate issued by Symantec and the corrupt Chinese certificate CNNIC?

I know how to do this on Windows ( http://bit.ly/2bcz1Qd ), I need the equivalent for how to do this in Firefox on Android.

As I understand it, Firefox's Certificate Manager does not have a mechanism or interface to distrust website or intermediary certificates, only built-in root certificates. Unfortunately, then, there is no way to block trust of the BlueCoat certificates in Firefox on any platform.

The previously issued certificate might not be as big an issue as was originally thought:
