We can put some thought into how to set up the third parties to be trusted with our keys. Curretly it's very haphazard. And it's not avoidable. Even Phil Zimmerman, inventor of PGP, won't accept PGP encrypted mail because he claims to have lost his private key.

The outrage "own your private keys or bust!" is much easier tho.

Do you happen to know which OS Phil was using, when he lost his private key and what the exact circumstances were? This is a nice story to be told, but without details it is not worth that much.
