You could also think about getting CAcert(ified?) and promote the CAcert root certificates getting included in more browsers. This is not measurably more insecure since SSL is mostly snakeoil anyways as long as you rely on external entities[0] to verify the identity of websites.
Ideally, browsers would store the certificate presented on the first visit to a website and compare the certificate presented on following visits to that stored certificate to warn the user on mismatches – so far, I have not yet found a usable implementation thereof, and especially not one more widespread than CAcert.
