Another note:

Nobody, to within experimental error, uses IP addresses to access public 
websites.

But plenty of people use them for test servers, temporary servers, and embedded 
devices. (My home router is http://192.168.1.254/, do they need to get a 
certificate for 192.168.1.254? Or do home routers need to come with 
installation CDs that install the router's root certificate? How is that not a 
worse situation, where every web user has to trust the router manufacturer?)

And even though nobody uses IP addresses, and many public websites don't work 
with IP addresses (because vhosts), nobody in their right mind would ever 
suggest removing the possibility of accessing web servers without domain names.
