Re: ACTION-40: Propose text for bug 17202 to propose how to share keys without leakage of information

That is basically the model I am proposing. However that approach only covers persistent keys in storage, it does not cover “live” keys which are actively being used. 
There is a performance benefit to sharing those keys as well. In order to share those keys, the CDM needs to have some idea of which the trust relationships are between the applications with active sessions. 

A naive alternative for live keys is to allow the CDM to simply share any live keys it has with any application that tries to create a session that needs them. 
But that is a privacy leakage as was pointed out by multiple people.
