I think i favor this approach, ideally *without* adding trust model
work into the mix.

Trying to explicitly declare a standardized trust model would be a 
mistake for the WG.  it's a huge rat hole, and a "one trust model
fits all" approach is probably illegitimate at some deeper level,
since different people have different adversaries.


I agree with DKG on both favoring Option 2 and avoiding definition of
trust model as part of this update; if anything this can be provided
as an informative rfc outside of the scope of this WG, it is only
relevant to the extent we would need additional mechanisms to
implement them, and the current mechanism provide good flexibility for
various implementations already.

DKGs list of things to look into seems like a good starting point
(although I haven't reviewed it in detail), I also seem to recall
discussion about whether a hard expiry should be introduced that
should be possible within option 2 if we want to.
