* XXX might be a good idea to try signature based security:
* 		- sign changes
* 		- sign sync session
* 		- refuse changes with wrong signatures
* 		- public keys available on client and on server
* 			- check signatures localy
* 			- check signatures remotely
* 		- private key available only with author
* 		- keep both the last signed and superceding unsigned version
* 		- on sync ask to overwrite unsigned with signed
* 		- check if we can use the same mechanics as ssh...
* 		- in this view a user in the system is simply a set of keys and 
* 			a signature (a page =))
*
* XXX split this into modules...
* 		pwiki.js
* 		pwiki/page.js
* 		pwiki/store.js
* 		plugin/markdown.js
* 		plugin/pouchdb.js
*
* XXX add action to reset overloaded (bootstrap) pages...
* 		- per page
* 		- global
*
* XXX need to think about search -- page function argument syntax???
