It might be safer, but that doesn't hit my target at all. I am aiming at
a zero-knowledge user, i.e. one who cannot discover anything at all
about the db. The idea is that even if subvert can subvert a client and
get access to the db the amount of metadata they can discover is as
close to zero as possible.
