That is something I want to work on. Right now, we are doing authenticaion
over LDAPS. I strongly believe that we need to have a method for
authentication over HTTP (HKP) as well. Let's talk with Marc Horowitz on
this, and develop a way to handle adding such keys. I see no reason why a
key in a clear-text signature packet of some sort wouldn't work.
