I'd like to propose a discussion topic for the LSF: how best to implement a common key type for use by NFS, CIFS and AFS such that, say, a kerberos key can be encapsulated within one and then be pulled out by various filesystems. Furthermore, it would be necessary to allow the request_key() upcall mechanism to perform GSSAPI queries.
