This is a fantastic idea! Bookmarked. Is there a GitHub repo of this? I would be more than happy to contribute some PRs.

There hopefully will be one soon! The backend was written haphazardly in a weekend, so once I clean it up to save myself some embarrassment, I'll open up the source on Github. I'll send you an email if that happens (using the one in your HN profile).

I'm actually in the midst of building out a tool for that exact scenario[0]. You can send it to anyone so long as you know the email or username they use for a service that implements OAuth. If they successfully authenticate and the server sees their username / email match up, it sends back the encrypted data to the frontend, which then decrypts it with the key in the URI fragment. It's neither audited nor open source just yet, so I don't recommend using it for actual secret sharing until then.
