My view is that there is no demand for this as a service.  The apparent 
need for it is more a paper requirement that came out of PKI world's 
search for a perfect product than any business need.

E.g., if you think you want it, you might be better rewarded by 
re-examining your assumptions as to why it is needed, than building it...
