Interesting you should say that.  Apple's Certificate Manager
application (on Mac OS X) is an adventure in confusion: full-screen the

Sure, but that's not the question.  The question is whether OpenPGP's
model could be, and whether such a simplification would improve
OpenPGP's adoption.  I think the answers are "no" and "not significantly."
