FWIW, this is why I generally recommend running on a "cloud" provider like Digital Ocean rather than running physically in your own home. But of course that requires trusting the provider, which is a trade-off.
<vaporware>Once we have all our federation plans in place it will be easy to have multiple Sandstorm servers that connect to each other so that you can restrict critical secrets (say, your PGP key) to your home machine while putting less-critical stuff in "the cloud", but still have them all connect to each other (essentially: federated Powerbox).</vaporware>

The ability to click "download backup" and get a zip that has 100% of your app state, ready for one-click restore to a functional install, is ammaaaazing.
