It is important, though, to maintain the web-of-trust. It does have

I don't recall being required to "ultimately trust" someone to send them
encrypted mail. I'd call that a foolhardy thing, too. It'd be better
to set your mailer to trust people on your keyring - that affects what
you do with the keys, rather than inappropriately bodging the keys,
themselves.
