True. I don't expect DSA to ever become viable enough to worry about.  I think 
if you ran the same select for ECDSA, you would come up with zero, but there is 
some expectation of that changing in the long run. 

By now all the major browsers except Opera support ECDSA, so we might be seeing 
some of those when websites feel it's safe to abandon the IE6-on-Windows-XP and 
old Macs.
