Wow! This is super cool! Using OCR is a neat idea. It looks simpler
to implement than I would have imagined it might be. Thank you for
continuing to pave the way for system tests.
Is anyone actively working on documenting the new encrypted root stuff?
If not, I'm happy to try my hand at it. I'm interested in trying to set
it up on my laptop, anyway.
