Does Oak need automatic encryption or has other use case for encryption ?
{quote}
I don't think it's this simple. The way I see it (nothing against crypto 
support itself) is: does Oak need to _implement itself_ the crypto support, or 
can it simply 'enable' on demand it via a plugin mechanism and a loose 
dependency to an external library that provides this support. 
Could we use it? Sure! Do we need to roll our own crypto? Not convinced.
