Is it possible to get new packages into Jessie post-freeze?

  Generally not into the Debian repos, though it's possible the release manage could approve it. You can pin other releases for specific packages, though, and if this is well-designed it should have minimal other dependencies. Ideally it's simply requesting and installing a key.

  I don't think it would make sense to start shipping this package in operating systems before public cert issuance starts, which is currently expected to be around next summer. It would be fairly confusing to web developers to be encouraged by the OS to run the client, only to have it immediately inform them that there are no CAs yet able to issue certs to them!
