Yet, so far so good (in general). And the infrastructure has existed for quite
some years already.

OpenPGP might never become popular enough to attract childish people to the
keyserver network :). I certainly hope it will become popular, but spending a
/lot/ of development time on something that will be needed when it is popular...
I think that time is better spent on deducing ways to make it popular! STEED
perhaps? Funny detail is, STEED doesn't use the keyserver network!
