I'm game for putting in some time/effort - but I think you're possibly underestimating 
the sheer volume of work that would go into creating a CA that *everyone* would trust. 

You'd have to do an awful lot of verification work on each and every cert (personal or 
server) before anyone trusted you... let alone all of them.

That said... if someone has an idea of how to do this and make it work, count me in. :)
