Those people would most likely also see the filename. OTOH, people 
simply attaching the file to an email would *not* see the file contents. 
Thus putting that information into the filename seems more sensible to me.

What I'm somewhat concerned about, is that the filenames get really long 
and include commas (which breaks certain, not-so-clever applications). 
Is there a good reason for doing it that way and not split into 
directories. Something like that:

 - .monotone/keys/                    # all my public keys
 - .monotone/keys/private/            # all my private keys
 - .monotone/keys/private/no-passphrase/   # obvious...

This would also allow us to set proper read/write permissions per 
directory, instead of having to set that for every file...

Regards
