Yes, I play revocation whack-a-mole every day or two.  I hammer crt.sh's
pgsql replicas each time to get an up-to-date list of all new certs with
keys in the pwnedkeys database, and do the needful.

That'll always be the dream... but since at least one CA can't seem to
prevent a customer from getting a new certificate for the same key *while
they're revoking a cert for the same name with the same key because it's
compromised*, I think it's going to take a BR change that forbids reusing a
reported-compromised key before CAs bake in any sort of sensible key
blacklisting.
