If we start to depend on what the two remaining web browser vendors
implement we should also to to use SRV records and many other things
which are for good reasons standard.

Up until Google allows for OCB you can still keep on using our solid and
unbroken MDC method.

Please also be reminded that Browser and web things can easily be
changed but that OpenPGP is foremost used in other domains where you
want very stable and non-disruptive protocol enhancements.  Think
decades and not years.

Also be reminded that in CMS we are still waiting to get basic AD
methods in real use.  Something we have in OpenPGP for more that 15
years.  Not need to rush out new things because the browser does not
support it.


Salam-Shalom,
