Intentionally left blank? :-)

Doesn't it make sense to use the newest one if multiple root certs are found? I'm not sure if/how this problem can occur, but wouldn't this make GpgOL Web unusable until the surplus root certs are removed?

We create a temporary gnupghome, create a certificate, then look for it, copy out data and destroy that gnupghome.

I'm not sure we can actually go enough back/forward to actually end up with multiple, but that's at least so much a user error that we should be preventing that instead.
