        I understand all that. My point was that security needs are too  
individual for us to try to anticipate something that fits everyone.  
So in this regard, we've chosen to leave it up to the developer to  
provide the correct solution for the problem they are solving. You  
can create any encryption class your clients need, and as long as it  
exposes encrypt() and decrypt() methods, all it takes is one line to  
have your Dabo app use it.
