That's insufficient, though, because people *will* make assumptions
about the security of the system based on how it appears to function to
them, and the modes of organization which a system like this affords
will encourage people to use it in ways which are actively unsafe.

A system like this, targeted at the use cases this system is targeted
at, must be proactively secure.  To do otherwise is grossly irresponsible.
