--- Comment #2 from David Cook <[email protected]> ---
Having a single master key isn't uncommon, but it could be nice to be able to
have multiple encryption keys and to specify which one is needed for what
feature.

I think that this mechanism could be especially useful for key rotation. (I
notice Marcel has already commented on bug 32078 where we had talked a bit
about key rotation.) I've used other systems where I've rotated encryption keys
in this way. 

Another future use could be data interchange. Perhaps you'd want to share
encrypted data with another system without giving that other system your master
key. You could just encrypt that particular information with a shared key while
keeping most other data encrypted using a master key. This scenario is pretty
hypothetical though.
