First off, thanks to Jacob for taking the time to provide such complete use cases / examples / API suggestions, these are much appreciated! I agree that this is an issue which needs to be tackled. The crux of the matter, as outlined by Jacob, is that Zeitgeist is enabled by default in 11.04, while encryption of /home is optional. As thekorn and RainCT, said, encrypting activity.sqlite isn't the solution to all of our problems, but at least it rules out some attack vectors. I feel like this would be a good start (I'll package sqlcipher tonight).
