> Not really. The whole point of Let's Encrypt is that we can circumvent that whole extortionist snake-oil industry, and it's unlikely someone can do it for free, or cheap enough for most app authors to use it, when there's human work involved for every single validation.

If certifying identity is mostly just snake oil, then it might be possible for Let's Encrypt to do it (by simply authenticating prior to generating the cert). I'll ask around.
