Thoughts about extracting some of the utilities? #177

Really enjoying Keybase and I've been wanting to build more tooling on top of it. Unfortunately some of the trickier parts to code are silo'd inside of the node client. I think it'd be helpful to the development community to extract some of these as helpers and utilities to make keybase apps easier to get off the ground.

I've attempted building some of these functions over at node-keybase. Right now it's simply a copy/paste/pray job. Extracting these and having the node client rely on them could help other apps stay in sync with how things are being encrypted/decrypted.

Thoughts?

This is a great idea, and I had started on it in libkeybase-js, but never finished. Instead, I've been doing the same for the Go libraries.
