If you're concerned about MITM attacks from China, then yes. But if it actually becomes an issue that most people need to worry about, then a most-people solution will soon be made available (like the browser companies issuing updates that un-trust CNNIC for us).
It's not complicated, anyway. At least in Firefox it's just a menu option in Preferences -> Advanced -> Encryption -> View Certificates.
