Our list of group encryption keys won't be entirely encrypted: anyone will be able to read that it is a list of encrypted keys (but inside that each key is encrypted).

This leaks the group size. We can fix it easily, though, by appending dummy values to pad it out to the nearest increment of some multiple (maybe 64; will need to think about the final sizes) so that it doesn't directly leak the group size.

It seems I have missed some information about the new closed groups design. Where can I read more about this ?
