I was actually looking into the same thing myself by trying something
as simplistic as curl queries for the API :) Another thing that
strikes me, but granted I haven't done much research, is that the key
can't be requested by username, only by user id. So if anyone were to
want to using it as a keyserver / CA of sorts to establish identity
for a user profile they believe to be genuine, they couldn't do so
from outside of FB.
