For me, the major problem in the infrastructure of PGP "web of trust" is that even that is prone to spamming (not in the hash values but in the appearance of names involved) and learning to avoid them. See the recent example:

It doesn't appear at the moment that pushing this technology to web browsers would increase the security of the most of the users.
