--- Comment #4 from Giuseppe Lavagetto <[email protected]> ---
Storing the keys server-side means that anyone with root access on that server
can eavesdrop the communications. Given the level of protection needed in this
case, the best "user-friendly" solution would be using a browser extension for
managing and handling the private key and its encryption work. A good example
of this approach is what mailvelope (https://www.mailvelope.com/) is doing.

Having credible End-to-end encryption cannot happen on a vanilla browser, and
has been debated over and over in the security community.
