Unfortunately certificates are still quite expensive (at least here in
Germany) and thus make hardly sense for individuals who want/need to get
some kind of accreditation for their personal domain. Even for a business
getting a certificate for every domain used in email *and* running a
webserver with that certificate (implying an ip address used for only
this purpose as certificate validation would fail otherwise) will
increase the operational cost of a domain by an order of magnitude.

Addendum: I do not run Webservers on the plain domain name and I would dislike this very much. Currently I do not publish A RRs for the plain domain names (example.com), only for specific hosts (like www.example.com).
