Need a way to add additional users to be able to view documents, and optionally manage (update/delete) them.

Especially for authentication/registration and anywhere PGP (== compute intensive) is used.

Ideally auth would be completely decentralized, or at least give users options to use different auth services, but my initial investigation hasn't lead to any great solutions.

Blockstack is definitely worth looking into more but so far it seems the integration would be pretty clunky (e.g. requiring a blockstack app to be open).

Though not decentralized, Keybase is allegedly working on an auth platform which we could also use with their encryption API. Keybase is a pretty great project so at least some sort of optional integration with dcap could be useful.

Enable type configs to detail more complex field validations that must be fulfilled for documents to be posted. Some of this might already be possible with JSON schema and Ajv, but haven't really investigated it that much.

The type config should specify what metadata would appear in the type index (i.e. so document doesn't need to be separately fetched to get e.g. a sorting field.
