look at using a quorum based key distribution and agreement protocol
(where quorum == a specific subset of group key management) with
regular attestation / rekeying via trusted and strongly authenticated
mechanisms.  session timeout (for failure / lack of consensus /
malicious attack) should be detected within an appropriate time frame
for the user to respond securely.  (i tend to think 60 seconds is an
acceptable window)

doing this in a user friendly manner is very difficult and probably
the reason prior work in this domain is scarce.
