Looking briefly at the Monkeysphere proposal mentioned earlier in this
thread, there appear to be some fields that could be used to
distinguish Monkeysphere-based handshakes from other handshakes:

* A new signature type is used, NullSignatureUseOpenPGP.
* The signature type's object ID comes from an ID space allocated to
the Monkeysphere project.
* The signature consists of the ASCII bytes "use OpenPGP".

As I said before, this isn't necessarily a problem - it just raises
the question of whether it's a design goal for the FreedomBox's
traffic to be hard to distinguish from other traffic.

Cheers,
Michael
