Regarding strong authentication...
I wonder whether cryptographers couldn't preempt the oncoming strong
authentication requirements by implementing practical zero-knowledge
systems that allow the user to choose from multiple identities by
which to authenticate, pay, etc.
It's not really a crypto problem, more a complicated applications and
business problem.
By developing such a system and getting it "out there", one could
capture the market before less-desirable systems form.
Perhaps EPIC, the EFF, or the ACLU could participate, or invest.
Lots have tried. The last big effort was InfoCard by Microsoft.
