By the way, much of this could be sidestepped if CAs were required to
publish all the evidence they have gathered together with the EV

those certificates that are actually used on popular sites).  This
way, everyone could review the strength of each CA's EV process.  The
peer pressure should be sufficient to ensure that everyone keeps their
backyards clean.

An interesting idea; but wouldn't there be confidentiality problems? Some of the things CAs might need to check might be things which a company quite reasonably does not want to be made public.
