Paul, I believe you're correct, but I also believe that Ian was
suggesting an AND, not an OR.

.CA (I'd actually suggest 'trustanchors') for trust anchor
inclusion/exclusion discussion. +1 under either name.
.UI for user interface issues (and ho boy there are many of them).  +1 to this.

Interestingly, I can't really see much reason for a .pki (except
possibly as an adjunct to .UI, since any changes to the PKI should
only be brought about due to usability requirements, and since .pki
would be more of a technical discussion of the changes that need to be
made... eventually [hopefully] leading to spec documents that code can
be written to adhere to).  +0, but I'm willing to listen to arguments
for and against.
