It's interesting to note that this idea isn't completely new, and raises some questions as noted by djb: https://cr.yp.to/im2000.html

And, yes, I've seen the IM2000 proposal before, it's undoubtedly influenced my thinking, though I didn't have it in mind writing above.

I'd really like to see a further exploration of the concept. djb's essay is still only a very rough outline.

Thanks for that. Yes, djb has thought through a lot of matters of trust and ought be considered. I'll take a look at that, I think I've read it before.
