Just to clarify: All data is encrypted on the client, going after a server backing a Store will get you encrypted blobs. Encryption keys would not exist on the server in plaintext.

Sorry to confuse the issue. I meant the keys for the Store's FDE, not the WebFS keys, which never leave the user's machine.

I was addressing jerry292's concern about access to the encrypted data in Stores.
