I guess this should be generalized:
 - a list of keys to ignore in the pathfinder (perhaps with an easy way to=
=20
include often-ignored keys)
 - an option to have it not stop at the first path, but to output all paths=
 up=20
to length n+x, where x is user defined and n is the length of the shortest=
=20
path between the keys.

I think the second one would be especially good, since if you get more path=
s,=20
you can get a better estimate whether to trust that key, and also the=20
likelyhood increases that you actually find a path where you already trust=
=20
all the people.
