It would be but do do you really want to use a token here?

We have not touched cacerts. All I'm saying is that it shouldn't be hard 
to come up with a solution that doesn't require the user to know the 
internal location. As I see it, there are two cases to consider. One is 
using keytool to access the cacerts in the runtime that keytool is 
running on, the other is where you use keytool to update a remote 
cacerts (a bit like the cross compilation issue). javac uses `-system 
<jdkhome>` for example.
