Good point, what does it take to promote a key to "trust marginally",
and from there to "trust fully".

For me, the only keys I have that I trust ultimately are those I
generated myself. Other members of the family have keys which I trust
fully. A few keys came from colleagues which I can "trust marginally",
but almost all the keys I have are "don't know".
