I just pointed someone to the starttls man page and noticed
some things that are wrong or don't make much sense:
The first entry is missing a tag. I don't understand:
"force string verification depths to at least 80 bits"
"string" -> "strong" maybe?
But "depths to at least 80 bits" doesn't make much sense to me.
cf/README states:
VERIFY:bits verification must have succeeded and ${cipher_bits} must
be greater than or equal bits.
ENCR:bits ${cipher_bits} must be greater than or equal bits.
So here's a suggested patch (also increasing the strength, as 112/80
isn't considered "strong").

the role based granularity as well:

as permanent or temporary, PERM+ or TEMP+) can be set on the basis of
