The problem with autocrypt are the cases where its security measures are
tested. There is not good way to interact with the users in those cases.
I know this is not parts of its design goals, but it works against a better
user experience.
The progrem with hagrid (from what I've heard) is that it is again an attempt
of a validating keyserver, which means it has to centralize the trust
function or there is no point in the validation.
This makes WKD most mature and easiest for users in my eyes. (I was involved
in its design.).
