My wish is for something like this to be provided as a service. I want to be able to write a collaborative, multi-user web app without having to run any servers and without having any access to my users' data. The way desktop apps used to be, except I want my users to be able to share data with each other easily. I also would like my users to have flexibility to choose between data providers (or even run their own), so their data is never held hostage.
Hey, I'm one of the developers working on the project. The possibility of "Crypton as a Service" is something we've been thinking about since we started working on this. It's coming soon, but we've been busy getting the fundamentals out - watch for the client SDK which will hook up to a SpiderOak-hosted Crypton server.
