[JDEV] Signed & encrypted messages

[Mathew Johnston]

While the current encryption support covers encrypted text messages, it
does not include the encryption of anything else - no URL encryption, etc.

That means that extentions (stuff that goes in the <x> element) don't have
a standard mechanism for encryption or signing; this is a serious limitation,
and one that's being resolved.
