Hi David. Thanks for chiming in. Please add a feature for pinning at the 
key level as IMO it provides the best protection.

Will the logs provide users/site owners with a way to independently 
check if coercion has happened?

Would systems like Cothority help Lets Encrypt users notice cert 
issuance inconsistencies even under compelled assistance? This project 
has the advantage of letting Tor clients spot anomalies in the Tor 
consensus documents should any of the DirAuths be compromised and it can 
be used for CAs too:
