One example - one might like to 'roll their own' SSK keypairs, and keep their own private symmetric key, and for the SSK public URI within freenet use: SSK at H(pubkey),H(symmetric_key),mode but between trusted users use: SSK at H(pubkey),symmetric_key,mode This way, freenet would never see plaintext.
