That is why I like my unique to the machine key that is supplied to the

You will be able to do this -- at least, on x86. Some lobbying on the ARM
front is needed.
It won't be a key that's supplied to the user, though. The user will be able
to add their own.
As long as the key is unique to one single machine the idea is sound
except for the "user too stupid to live" cases.
