Hi.  I'd like to understand how these human readable names that we're
going to insert into a DHT are going to work from a security standpoint.

What stops me from taking your name?  What stops me from taking names
similar to yours?

I'm skeptical of the advisability of globally scoped non-hierarchically
registered human readable names and would like to understand the service
model and goals for this proposal.
