Ian, what's your take on this? Should we support it?
If so, I'd like to add the keytype number for RSA in the upcoming OTR
draft.

I was planning to use libotr for a project where I'd need both "normal"
asymmetric encryption (RSA probably) and OTR-like encryption. The problem is that I was
hoping to use a single public key for both uses, but OTR uses only DSA and I can't do
encryption with it. My next thought was to modify libotr to support RSA signatures as
well, but since I'm not really a crypto expert I thought I'd ask here first if that's
even a good idea? Would it be as simple as changing the DSA-specific code to RSA or are
there some deeper problems to solve as well?
At least it seems to work..
