Not a small concern. But, I should point out, one that we've dealt with
before. We had laptops stolen in Argentina, and physical safety concerns
in Alexandria, as I recall. I say this not to put a panacea of "oh, there
there, it'll be fine" in place, but to assure people that this is something
that I know that Garfield and Elle, and the rest of the WMF team working on
this will consider and keep in mind. :-)
