I am not a security expert either, but anyway: nice!
One problem I can see is that you can enable/disable encryption on
per-message basis, which presumably means you have encryption bit stored
somewhere in the message body. That in turn means pyzmq has its own wire
protocol and is not able to transparently interoperate with other
language bindings. Am I wrong?
