IMHO: Implementing a ready and easy to adopt, perhaps firefox only, security 
notice or security information box for sites, could be more than enough. I'm 
sure that many site developers would add a nice looking image link that would 
provide users with a popup javascript based box (or redirect them to a web 
page when javascript is not available) if they could find it ready (something 
like the "verysign identify protection" or the firefox logo). Including some 
information for IE too would only increase its possibility for success. No?
