I see people using fingerprints directly mostly. Some download them from key servers.

No, I think there are quite a few things that we can do today that change the WoT game. People carry smart phones with near field communication, barcode, cameras. So signing can be made a lot simpler. Another very important and useful development is Certificate transparency which has the effect of making the work factor for spoofing a key a suddenly go to practically infinity. Another resource to bring to bear is social networking And yet another is CA issued. If you want to know that someone is sending a message from the US gvot or a company that is organized in hierarchical fashion, a hierarchical PKI makes sense. I describe a hybrid approach in some detail with a mechanism for comparing trust models in terms of a 'social work factor' here: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hallambaker-prismproof-trust-01
