Users do understand mail addresses and thus a key should be identified
by the mail address and not by any other property.

What problem do you see with MOSS?  Except for the commonly ignored
micalg parameter it is a well working part of MIME and not a problem at
all.  This is true for S?MIME as well as for PGP/MIME.  We are still
talking about mail, tight?  Or is the goal of the list to replace the
rfc822 mail format - that will never happen in the foreseeable future.
