And, as we've said several times, we run into the key enumeration problem.

This does not address the key enumeration problem.

MFPA, we've already spent much more time on this issue than I think is
warranted.  Your idea would be nice if it could happen, but it does not
appear to me to be possible.  There is no theoretical understanding of
how to solve the problem and no implementation offered that comes
anywhere near to passing my sniff test.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I'm done.  I will not be addressing
this subject again until such time as things change.
