One way to offer some improvements might be to be persuade one of the
Root CAs to let you manage multiple flavored "certifications"
server-side and provide access by API, browser plugin and web-site to
a transparent public database of the all issued certificates - so you

The term "web of trust" was used to describe the non-hierarchical

We also desperately need a way to allow multiple authorities to sign
one domain. At present there are hundreds, if not thousands of root
authorities registered in the browser. If any one of them were
compromised SSL would be prone
Generating certificates is actually a pretty trivial task. What you
pay for when you buy one is the ancilliary services - the "trust" you
get from a recognized Certification Authority and the integrity of its
issuing process.

You can get a cert for as little as $9.95 which will be just as good
as the $400 one.Check the feature comparison as the higher priced ones
