I suppose this is both a question for policy and for Mozilla - given the

the effect it has on the URL bar (the lone trusted space for security 
information), has any consideration been given to removing or deprecating EV 
certificates?

Fix the EV GUI not to hide the hostname part of the URL, and retain the
display of the company name.

Unless you are going to invent a new namespace, there isn't anything to
gain by removing EV. It's still better than not having EV, even if it
is a second race to the bottom after the DV race.
