Yes, but if we're going to change something, I think it would be useful for
the client to authenticate the server.  If it doesn't, I don't see that
we've really improved the situation.

This can be done without requiring a large number of clients to be keyed. If you don't see that as an improvement, um, I guess we have a disconnect.
