Sounds like you and I, while not exactly on the same page, are definitely in the same chapter. 

Unfortunately, I work TWO day jobs, which doesn't leave me much time. 

However, it would be nice to see how well that research pans out in practical use. Check out https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs and http://www.i2p2.de/ ; those look like their right in your ballpark.

I would certainly be interested in Beta Testing.

Good luck!
