To be clear, all of Keybase's client-server traffic goes over TLS and benefits from TLS's forward secrecy on the wire.

Nothing stops you from going full PFS.

In fact, you could even flip it around and let a shared notepad connected to the chat represent what you want to remember permanently, while the chat could remain ephemeral.

This makes for more accurate expectations and less risk of user error.

I can believe that is the case, but that just moves the attack vector to within Keybase's network, it doesn't mitigate it completely.
