I tagged it as "maybe proposal" because it involves a protocol change.
 I am not sure whether the change it requires would be big enough to
require a proposal for the 10th of this month or not.

I don't need a huge writeup: Just enough to explain how it's supposed
to work and why you'd want to do it that way.  The "write the whole
private key in one argument" thing seems off to me, as does putting
the responsibility for private key management on the controller
exclusively.

(That patch is a nonstarter for other reasons, too; see the comment I
just posted to the ticket.  Heap overflows are not our friends.)
