What public key crypto are you talking about? You seem to think that something like DNSSEC is in wide use throughout the world, which is a very strange notion for someone to have when they damn well should know better.
I don't see why this would need to be "fixed". We're not talking about 5 year olds, people need to be able to cross the road without someone holding their hand.
You're on a slippery slope here. At what point do you think that you can stop protecting the users? How do you justify that?
