How long do we have now those old fashioned key servers, and was
there ever been made attempts by the software maintainers to
modernize the code, like you are saying incorporating crypto
validation?

O.k. Werner invented WKD which solves those problems, if i'm not
mistaken, but is it besides keybase.io widely deployed?

The old pgp.com key server solved those problems also nicely, if i
remember correctly.
