Interesting read. I'm glad this work is being done, but I remain skeptical about its efficacy... particularly the "plug and play" options. I think that hiding the details, and making things turn-key, will only make it easier for the NSA and others to subvert them.
Perhaps the news organizations need an in-house crypto-ops paid position to give them direct access to expert knowledge. Rely on that expertise rather than try to automate and abstract something that is inherently complex.

Putting your eggs in one basket is a totally reasonable strategy if you watch that basket very carefully. I think people will. Your concern is still valid and reasonable.
