look in the IETF archives on "Global PKI on DNS?"

It is not a software issue. That you can construct a PK structure to represent a set of trust relationships for some purpose does not mean that there is some general purpose PKI. There isn't. That is, that you must construct a PK structure for every different purpose is not a software issue but an operational problem too complex and costly to be solvable. Masataka Ohta PK Shared key cryptography with KDC, either, does not offer the general purpose infrastructure, though shared key structures are easier to maintain.
