my understanding is that that is no longer the case.

We have a massive crisis (phishing) which Eke can solve, and certificates cannot solve.

We see absolutely zero interest in integrating eke from people who write web server software and people who write browsers. Indeed, more generally, we see very little interest in any cryptographic technology that would cut into the business model of the CAs.
