I have to agree with Leo on this one.  Key management *is* hard - especially
the part about doing secure key management in a world where Vint Cerf
says there's 140M pwned boxes.  It's all nice and sugary and GUI-fied and
pretty and Joe Sixpack can do it - till his computer becomes part of the 140M
and then he's *really* screwed.
