Hey thanks for your reply.

Off the top of my head I could think of the following use-case. 

I have a service running on a pie which I use to control my lights. The 
service has 3 functions, IsLightActive(), TunLightOn() and TurnLightOff. I 
should be the only person who can call TurnLightOn() and TurnLightOff() and 
the traffic should be encrypted (because lets say I dont want people to 
know what the proto message looks like). On the other hand, anyone should 
be able to call IsLightOn() regardless of who they are and there is no need 
to encrypt the traffic. 

Basically I want to use a single service, but make some functions 
accessible to specific people and encrypt the traffic for specific RPCs. 

Thanks :)
