Maybe I misunderstood you (middle of the night here), but isn't that a problem? Evil guy gets fake cert, trusts you with his cert, you get trusted, you sign his cert, the fake cert gets trusted?

The trust programme only interacts with the certificate process as far as identifying them in the first place, evil guy would have to get 3 people to trust him, ID checks etc, although judging by the following article photo ID documents can be just as useless...
