Option 3 is tempting, but it may be a larger project than there is energy to take on. Option 4 seems like it ought to be a new working group (and is additionally unlikely to gain much adoption barring a bit player pushing it to users), so I don't think we should tackle it here. I also would prefer to not try to mandate a specific trust model or models, though we can certainly have some in mind to ensure that what we come up with is compatible with them. -Ben
