More Encryption, More Notifications, More Email Security

They could mine for keywords on the client. They'd not need to store those against who you are sending the message to. It would be less intrusive than is the case now, but not as secure as then knowing nothing about what you're sending. Where would draft emails be stored in an end to end encrypted system? They'd need to store the information on their servers in a way that they can recover it for subsequent editing.

How is sending "keywords" back to a central server more secure than just mining them on the server?

I'm suggesting a way Google can monetise end to end encrypted emails.

By decrypting them at the end and sending them back to the middle, completely defeating the purpose!

You get improvement by returning a restricted feature set, but yes.
