I totally missed the part where you're willing to trust the server providing your Javascript (but not the storage node). That is a much more feasible design. Thanks for clarifying.
With respect to generating keys: PuTTY uses a blank rectangle and says "please randomly mouse over this". There's a simpler solution, though: since you're willing to trust a server, you can just let that generate a key for you.
Again, thanks for the clarification. You still have some chicken-and-egg problems to overcome, and you'll need to convince people to code in this way, but I'm happy to see that the basic design isn't as impossible as I'd feared.

Ah, I didn't expect a response. Nice.
