Ew. I think this project is harmful because it offers a false sense of 
security. How is the client-side encryption javascript sent to the browser 
in the first place? If it's not already sent over SSL, it can be 
intercepted and modified by attackers to send a copy of the cleartext to 
the attacker, for example.

The reason why SSL is secure is because it's already baked into the browser 
and attackers can't tamper with that machinery. This project removes that.
