If I'm out of line, please let me know.  If not, then could you explain
the rationale for accumulating keys from people you do not know or have
only read some of their writings in one or two echos?  That strikes me
as similar to enscribing the telephone book in your private number
list.
If PGP is the equivalent of a mailing envelope for E-mail (a good
analogy for privacy in communications), why collect the addresses of
people to whom you would never write?  Beyond the Web of Trust is the
Web of Usefulness.  IMHO, the only keys of value to me are 1) those I
have acquired via netmail or other one-on-one communications, and
2) those with whom I would expect to entertain private communications.
I'm sure you are a nice, reliable person.  I don't need your key to
make sure you're the person who has signed a particular message
because I don't know you from Adam's off ox, and the validity of the
message is as valid as I know you to be; whether signed or not.
Would this message have any greater significance to you if I had
'signed' it and posted my key in PKEY_DROP?
 ... Sometimes you gotta THINK about it...
