The PGP feature that a key doesn't have to belong to the True Name of an entity is a big plus in my book; otherwise, we'd have no Wonderer, no deadbeat, and no S. Boxx. It is, of course, worth noting that the PEM specs make explicit provisions for aliases; it's just up to some issuing agency to decide to issue them. And if no one wants to -- well, no one has to sign an anXXXX address's key, either. --Steve Bellovin
