I would perhaps point out that my original SSK proposal would have made 
this much easier.  It actually defined a language which could be used to 
specify what was entitled to insert into a subspace.  The simplest 
version of this would be "anything that is signed by public key X" which 
would be the same as today's SSKs.  Of course, much more sophisticated 
criteria could be defined such as "must be signed by a public key that 
has itself been signed by X" or "must be signed by two of public keys X, 
Y, or Z" etc.

Unfortunately, as usual, few recognised the true genius of my proposal
at the time dismissing it as over-complicated, Vincent Van Gogh - I 
know how you felt ;-)
