We
know how to employ signing certificates across a single organization,
and how to extend them in a pair-wise fashion (via cross
certificates) to a limited number of other organizations, but beyond
that I would argue we're stuck. Other may disagree. I'd love to be
wrong on this one.

I know Americans and Britains will shoot me for this suggestion, but I
am of th opinion that digital signature infrastructures are the job of
the government, just as passports and drivers licenses.
That would blow up the "single organization" to span entire countries
and "pair-wise extension" to the rest of the world would become
manageable.
