Comment:

 The immutable terminology needs clearing up as well. For example, CHKs are
 not really content-hash-keys: Tahoe uses "CHK" to refer to caps for both
 convergent and non-convergent immutable files (and directories when #607
 is done); also, convergent encryption uses a secret to avoid guessing
 attacks, which is sufficiently different from Freenet CHKs that it should
 be called something else.
