6. *roadblock*/*speedbump* attacks could be restricted to holders of a read cap by use of an extra signature, as in the Elk Point 3 design (diagram at <http://jacaranda.org/tahoe/mutable-addonly-elkpoint-3.svg> for mutable files).
7. On Merkle-Damgård hashes with an internal state that is the same size as the hash output, there are better second-preimage attacks than brute force. See <http://www.schneier.com/paper-preimages.pdf> . This is not significant for roadblock/speedbump attacks because the internal state will be much larger than *t* bits, but it is significant for the other attacks.
