But, I don't want "origin X", I want "peer-to-peer". I don't want some server somewhere providing the authorization to enter the network by gating the CA: I want a mutually interoperating set of web applications written by different developers all able to run code (maybe in a library) that bootstrap themselves into a permissionless peer-to-peer network. As for your concern about having to deal with a ton of incoming connections, such is the life of a supernode: if you aren't up for that, don't sign up to be a supernode. But like, without this, why do we care about "supernodes" anyway? If you have some centralized server you have to talk to to get certificates, just have it do signaling as well! :(
