However I think it would be preferable to keep as much as possible the open design at the network level. Anything trying to build a web of trust should be completely separate, for instance published white and blacklists. Authorities flagging relays with verified email or physical addresses could publish their lists, and this could be used by the clients with the default configuration. But no single relay - however bad someone thinks it is - should be kicked off the network by the network itself. Especially not on the basis of individual human decisions.

Currently each user tinkers with his own white- & blacklist. ;-) Long lists are created in bitcoin forums with EntryNodes, ExitNodes, ExcludeNodes & ExcludeExitNodes.
By the way: Your relay can be an exit from day 1. But get a guard flag only after 2 weeks or later, if the authorities put it at all. ;-)
