Comment:

 This would be particularly useful for users of Tahoe-LAFS-on-S3, who are
 subject to charges for all data stored, and so could be charged more than
 they expect if they provide access to a read/write gateway. (In that case
 the gateway holds the S3 secrets, so provided those secrets are kept
 secure, attackers cannot store data in the user's S3 bucket other than via
 such a gateway.)
