The issue for me is the "cleanliness" and accuracy of my local key ring
(as I pointed out in a previous message in this thread). I don't like
what either CAFF or Pius do; leave signatures that I consider "bogus" on
my local copy of the key, or rely on the user to upload the signatures
so that I can get them back after a refresh.
