Several of the "bird proposals" (eg. SPARROW, PARAKEET) rely on a trusted gatekeeper server but tend to relegate figuring out how that server gets trusted to a vague future. Has anyone built a governance model for these gatekeepers that I've missed?

The idea of a gatekeeper server is quite interesting given we have to contend with a situation in which trusting browsers not to self-deal is not evident. But it's a big ask, too, and we should start on the governance now, not later.
