This is great news, but I am wondering how they will handle revoking certificates. For example: Do we really want malware sites popping up with valid Ssl certificates?

Why not? If you own the domain you can get a DV cert, whether you use the domain for malicious purposes or not.

The certificate isn't saying "this website won't infect your computer", it's saying "you're talking to the real owner of this domain".
