Google are being dicks once more. Between my own self-signed zero security (as someone claims) certificate and your usual Comodo.com-anyone-can-haz-a-wildcard-

  Anybody can self-sign their own certificate to copy yours in seconds. A Comodo.com-anyone-can-haz-a-wildcard-cert is definitely safer as it takes far more effort to acquire the wildcard-cert and it leaves behind a financial paper-trail as the wildcard-cert must be paid for by someone. Definitely a long way from secure (stolen credit cards?), but still definitely safer than self-signed. Of course, self-signed where you transmit the public key beforehand is much safer than both. Some type of 'group trust' system using quorums would be safer also.
