I love this article, but the section on security raised a lot of questions. What's the model for authorizing access to documents for collaboration? How do you managed keys safely for encrypted data? How do users recover "lost" keys?
Cloud computing models have a lot of security mechanisms built-in. You might not like the model (AWS IAM for example) but at least there's a foundation already in place.
